When you reboot try passing init=/bin/bash to the kernel to see if it will then boot. If it does is there a problem with init? the kernel is telling you it can't find it.
You *might* need to reinstall the package that contains init (rpm -qf /sbin/init )
Let me know how you go, and good luck. John On Wed, 19 Jul 2006, JIANWEI ZHUANG wrote:
Hi I am experiencing a Kernel panic problem. Please help... It is Redhat 7.2 Linux with kernel 2.4.7-10. First I got a Journal Superblock error and mount error 22, so I used Linux Rescue in installation CD, ran e2fsck /dev/hda2, fixed and cleared all errors until hda2 was clean. After I reboot it, I have another error: pivotroot: pivot_root (/sysroot, /sysroot/initrd) failed: 2 Freeing unused kernel memory: 220K freed Kernel panic Kernal Panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. Here is the file system /dev/hda1 * 1 7 52888+ 83 Linux /dev/hda2 8 742 5556600 83 Linux /dev/hda3 743 776 257040 82 Linux swap What should I do next?
