I am also experiencing this kernel panic with kernel 509.  I have a Soyo 
KT333 Dragon Ultra-Platinum mainboard using IDE on the mainboard for the 
Linux partition.  It does not matter whether I use LABEL=/ or identify 
the partition as /dev/hda8.

The output to the screen is:

Red Hat nash version 4.02 starting
exec of init failed!!!:14
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!

Should this be entered into bugzilla?
