Hello all,
I just upgraded my system and after installing FC3, when booting I get
the following message
Uncompressing Linux... Ok, booting the kernel
audit(1101046871.4294965592:0): inititalized
Red Hat nash version 4.1.18 starting

Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
I have two SATA drives, /dev/sda and /dev/sdb
sda is 40GB and has 3 partitions on it:
/dev/sda1 - /boot 100M ext3
/dev/sda2 - swap 1500M
/dev/sda3 - / the rest of it which is also ext3
Trying FC2 works without any problem.
This has come up a couple times on this list (I think mine was the
first). My problem was that the initrd file did not have the SATA
support in it. My modprobe.conf file was missing a bunch of stuff. When
I restored my modprobe.conf file and then built a new initrd file with
the appropriate SATA driver, my system started working. I could boot
into the system using the Rescue CD to do all of this.
