are you _sure_ that this is the first error message you got? searching for this message on google shows various cases, all of which contains errors coming before this message. try to look at them and see fi you made any of the same mistakes. all the following errors are meaningless - they result from the mount failure mentioned above - and that one probably results from another failure, which you should carefully look for in the log file. > pivotroot: pivotroot(/sysroot .....)... > umount /initrd/proc failed: 2 > kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.
