end Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-

Subject: end Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(1, 0) while booting linux on qemu

Hello,

 

I have found a good reference today (https://ibug.io/blog/2019/04/os-lab-1/ ) which shows how to build kernel and run it on qemu.

I followed it (but with aarch64-none-elf- for kernel build and aarch64-linux-gcc- for fake init process build) including making the example myinitrd.img file.

Myinitrd.img is a ramdisk image containing fake init program which repeatedly prints “Hello” every 1 second..

 

And myinitrd.img also contains device files that were made by these commands ( given inside the mounted image )

mkdir dev

sudo mknod dev/ram b 1 0

sudo mknod dev/console c 5 1

 

and when I tried 

qemu-system-aarch64 -M virt -cpu cortex-a72 -kernel arch/arm64/boot/Image -initrd myinitrd.img --append "root=/dev/ram init=/init" -m 2048M -nographic

It started booting but at the end failed to mount myinitrd.img on ram device.

….

Could anyone tell me what can be wrong? (I tried changing ram device number and file name in vain).

Thanks!
