Typically /sbin/init.
This is the first process the kernel tries to spawn after it boots (see
linux/init/main.c). If you look in that source file you can see all the places the
kernel is looking for it. If it can't find it, the last thing it tries to start is
/bin/sh. Then it panics.
Do you think the kernel is finding the root file system on boot?
