Unable to get past kernel boot
I have just cross installed an old redhat server I have at a colo with
debian using debootstrap etc. but keeping the old kernel.
All went well and things looked good until I rebooted and couldn't get into
contact with the server.
Having gone into safe mode which boots a small distro from ramdisk (thankyou
1and1 hosting) I looked at my syslog (sorry for long cut and paste):

then nothing...and I can't even ping it from the network.
Where am I going wrong?
If the kernel boots and the fs mounts, then surely init shoud kick in and
start everything else?
Why does cron start and nothing else?
Any help gratefully received.
Thanks
J.
