Yes, it was a panic. Box did not boot (i would not bisect it otherwise). I won't have access to real box thus I've reproduced it in minimal UML: Current usermode linux perfectly reproduces the problem as well: $ cat ./run_ubda_fails #!/bin/sh ./vmlinux \ ubd0=$(pwd)/1G.img \ root=/dev/ubda \ rw \ mem=256M \ umid=foo \ \ "$@" reset $ cat ./run_ubda #!/bin/sh ./vmlinux \ ubd0=$(pwd)/1G.img \ root=/dev/ubda \ rw rootfstype=btrfs \ mem=256M \ umid=foo \ \ "$@" reset Note the rootfstype in the workign case. I've included only EXT4=y XFS=y and BTRFS=y as supported FSen.
