Bug 309611

Description of problem:


Tested with f7 xen kernel 2.6.20-2931.fc7xen.
Same Problem appears with latest xen kernels of fc5 and fc6 (about 2 Month ago).


How reproducible:

Every time the kernel boots. 


Steps to Reproduce:
1. Power on
2. Kernel boots
3. Kernel-Panic
4. Automatic reboot

  
Actual results:

"Kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init!"


Expected results:

Full system startup with a console prompt.


Additional info:

Sorry, only fragments of the boot messages available. I don't know how to get a
logfile if root partition does not mount. I think the following messages are
telling something about the problem:

"3w-9xxx: scsi0: ERROR: (0x06:0x00...........to ioremap."
"ATA: abnormal status 0x8 on port 0x177"
"device-mapper: ioctl: 4.11.0-ioctl (2006-10-12) initialised: dm-devel
  Reading all physical volumes. This may take a while...
