Dear All,

I am installing the latest vz6 kernel on a beefy SuperMicro X10 machine.  I 
followed the usual installation routine, i.e.

-- Install CentOS 6 (latest)
-- Follow instructions on page 
https://wiki.openvz.org/Quick_installation_(legacy)
-- Reboot

## Expected result:  machine rebooting in OpenVZ 6 kernel

## Actual result:  a kernel panic error appears on screen at boot.  I am 
pasting it here:

[       67.817501]      Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!

## Notes:

- Similar errors *seem* to be linked to problems when mounting the root file 
system;
- The CentOS 2.6.32-754.el6.x86_64 kernel boots always successfully;
- The main partition is backed by an Areca 1214-4i controller with BBU, 
configured as HW Raid10;
- The kernel module for Areca controllers is present in both initrd images, 
albeit in different locations:

Has anyone encountered such an issue before?

Thanks,
