[linux-lvm] kernel panic - converting root fs to lvm

[Jorge Melhado]

Luca,

I generated another RAM with mkinitrd, changed the /etc/lilo.conf and reran
lilo.
After reboot, I note start up proceeds a bit more than before.
Now I see this message:

Mounting root filesystem
mount: error 6 mounting ext3
pivoroot: pivot_root (/sysroot, /sysroot/initrd) failed: 2
Freeing unused kernel memory: 280k freed
Kernel panic:  No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel


Thanks


Jorge
