RE: [Qemu-devel] Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Trypassing init= option to kernel.

[Kjel Delaey]

If I do this I got a VFS problem

Not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(3,1.)

I also tried to enable reiserfs support. I read on a forum that this may be a solution to the init problem. In my case it wasn't a working solution.
