CentOS7 Kernel Panic

Hello Everyone,

I have prepared following isolinux.cfg.

default linux label linux
kernel /vmlinuz
append initrd=/initrd.gz

But kernel panics with the standard message ‘Kernel panic – not syncing: No init found’. Linux kernel version is 3.10.

I tried to read the init.txt too.But could not figure out the issue.

Can you please help me figure out the problem ?

Thanks Sachin

  • You haven’t told Linux where to find a root filesystem. Beyond that, we’d need more information about what you’re trying to accomplish, in order to offer useful advice.

    My last isolinux.cfg that I wrote was:

    … label linux
    kernel linux
    append initrd=initrd.img root=/dev/sda8

    Not sure if the “/” makes the difference …

  • Guys,

    I am a newbie. I am trying to load kernel from a DVD. How do I figure out where my root filesystem mounted ?

    Thanks Sachin
