I see the sam problem with 2.6.23-rc1-git5.

Freeing unused kernel memory: 236k freed
failed to execute /init
kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to
kernel

Copying /sbin/init to / results in the same error.
openSUSE 10.3Alpha6plus
# rpm -qf /sbin/init
sysvinit-2.86-90

Please read chapter 4.1 and 4.5
http://www.stardust.webpages.pl/files/handbook/handbook-en-0.3-rc1.pdf

It should be very simple

git-bisect start
git-bisect bad
git-bisect good 0de085bb474f64e4fdb2f1ff3268590792648c7b

and so on and so forth

Sid.

Looks like a job for the weekend.

Sid.
