Hi Everyone,
I have installed RHES 2.1 installed on my machine, which comes by default with kernel-2.4.9-e.24. It works well. I recently upgraded to kernel 2.4.18-27.7.x using kernel RPM as follows:
rpm -ivh kernel-2.4.18-27.7.x.i686.rpm /sbin/mkinitrd -f -v /boot/initrd-2.4.18-27.7.x
I am using grub as the bootloader and it has following configuration for booting into new kernel:
title Red Hat Linux (2.4.18-27.7.x) root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz-2.4.18-27.7.x ro root=/dev/hda3 initrd /initrd-2.4.18-27.7.x.img
When i boot into new kernel i get following error:
pivotroot: pivot_root(/sysroot, /sysroot/initrd) failed: 2 Freeing unused kernel memory: 160k free Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.
Thing to note. I can still boot to older kernel and works well.
Any one any ideas what could be the problem in here? Any help on the matter will be appreciated.
Thanks and Regards, Nikunj
