Thanks for the reply. I just went through the boot steps by hand and I'm fairly sure initrd has been loaded. Here is what one of my grub menu options looks like:
root (hd0,0) kernel /vmlinuz root=/dev/sda2 ro console=tty0 initrd /initrd.img savedefault bootThere is something funny there though. root is actually on sda1. Also the savedefault command doesn't work when running those commands manually. When I step through each command manually, changing to sda1 obviously, everything looks fine to me (with the exception of savedefault responding with a command not found error).
When I edit the command to change sda2 to sda1, upon reboot it has been changed back to sda2. All attempts to boot the machine result in the Kernel panic.
