Subject: Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempt to kill init!

Hi List,

I have a recent install of FC3 and am attempting to build xen from
bk://xen.bkbits.com/xen-2.0.bk.  Everything appears to build and install
correctly.

However, upon boot using the following stanza, it fails.

title Fedora Core 3 (2.6.10-xen0)
         root (hd0,0)
         kernel /xen.gz dom0_mem=524288 noreboot
         module /vmlinuz-xen0 ro root=/dev/Main/Dom0 console=tty0
         module /initrd-2.6.10-xen0.img

/dev/Main/Dom0 is a logical volume on /dev/md0 (raid0)
/initrd-2.6.10-xen0.img was built with (thanks, Nivedita)
     mkinitrd --omit-scsi-modules --omit-raid-modules \
     initrd-2.6.10-xen0.img 2.6.10-xen0

Watching the boot process all seems in order, i.e. it recognizes all 
memory, drives, etc.

Here's what's left on the console at failure.
...
Freeing unused kernel memory
RedHat nash version 4.1.18 starting
Mounted  /proc filesystem
Mounting sysfs
Creating /dev
Starting udev
Making device mapper control node
Scanning logical volumes
   Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while . . .
Activating logical volumes
Making device nodes
Creating root device
Mounting root filesystem
mount: error 6 mounting ext3
mount: error 2 mounting none
Switching to new root
switchroot: mount failed: 22
umount /initrd/dev failed: 2
Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!
   <0> Rebooting in 1 seconds..

Any insights?  I'm afraid this might be one of those situations where
I've looked at it so much that I'm seeing right through it :(

TIA,
Mike Wright
:m)
