This seems to be a defective installation problem. Did you do an error-free install ? It seems that your kernel after load- ing is not being able to find the root filing system, and the init process cannot continue. Manually correct the error as follows: a) Boot through your rescue disk (not boot disk), or any stand alone disk based distro like tomstrbt or alfalinux. b) Mount your root partition, and go to /mnt/etc/boot (where- ever your mount is) c) See where your kernel points to pesently: rdev vmlinuz-2.x.xx d) If it is not correctly pointed to your root device, change it to the correct location: rdev vmlinuz-2.x.xx /dev/hda2 (or whatever ...) e) Reboot ... should work, if installation is otherwise okay.
