There will be demand for a little more info from your side - what are 
your BootX settings? what filesystem did you install the new system on?  
does the kernel have compiled in support for this used filesystem?  what 
exactly does it "say" when it panics?  stuff like this, it usually get's 
easier to pinpoint a mistake the more details are provided.

my 5 cents,
