Looks like you've screwed up somewhere. Have you compiled support for you motherboard's chipset into you kernel? Likewise support for whatever device your root filesystem is on and whatever filesystem you use. I get the "No init found" error if I screw up the grub.cfg and try to boot the wrong partition (which doesn't have /sbin/init) but that shouldn't produce an oops. Sorry I can't be more help.
