I still need this for a pure 2.6.26? I'll try this.

Hm, I `cp /boot/config .config` in new kernel tree [2.6.27] for the
config. Do I make mistakes?

No, I was just noting that I try to start oldconfig with a known working 
config, to reduce the number of choices and possible errors. I wasn't 
sure if you did that, so I mentioned it.

Re:

This morning I run `make mrproper` in the kernel tree and rebuild. But
it make the kernel panic at 9 s, with the same error.

Maybe I'll get the 2.6.27 from the kernel.org now.

Thx,

Re:

[Yudha Harimantoro T]

Can you explain to me what the error means?
I got the kernel panic with the
http://kernel.org/pub/linux/kernel/v2.6/linux-2.6.27.tar.bz2

<b>....
Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to
kernel</b>

I still got the error.

Best regards,

It literally means the kernel can't find /sbin/init, the first userspace program which starts everything else.  It's a less common error - it's more common to fail to mount the root filesystem, e.g. because you forgot to enable e.g. ext3 or sata.

My guess would be your kernel has mounted the wrong filesystem as root.  Which device (partition etc) is your root filesystem on, and what boot options do you pass to the kernel?
