<0>Kernel Panic Attempted to kill init!
 

Hello, I bought a linux red hat cd a week ago ad hvent been about to get it to install when ever i put it in graphical or text mode it say the same thing <0>Kernel Panic Attempted to kill init! Can anyone hlpe me?

can you please post the hardware that you have installed?

not only vga card,motherboard, but everything inside out. SCSI hard drives (if you have), completely everything

and the version of red hat you .. purchased?

the first thing to check if there is some conflict with the hardware is to unplug everything and work only with the needed.
keyboard, mouse
and then ofcourse install one by one to find out the one that has the problem

I'm not absolutely sure of the problem and I didnt't post a solution but a first step.

but again, post your hardware

here i've same problem but when i try to boot frm single user mode .I mean ,From GRUB (editing itfor single user mode) the same error occures.

I too have the same message coming up with the additional pain of the System hanging.More over the CD too gets hikacked by the sytem.
Any solution will be appreciated.
