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

Sid.
