Kernel Panic

I’m receiving an error message right now. It appears to be pretty bad on the system. Might not be the Windows install. miht be something else.

I load the LinuxLive CD for Mutagenix. Burned from an iso. Should be fine, as far as I can tell. CD starts the boot process and gives the following error: Kernel panic — not syning: Attempted to kill init! Searching on what this might mean… mean while I’m downloading another image just in case the one I had was the problem.

It took loading a Linux Live CD to possibly pinpint the culprit. I don’t know Linux that well (dabbler level at best). However, if you get an error message and search on it, you’ll find lots of free documentation that explains what the error message means and how to deal with it. Here’s hoping it isn’t written for programmers.
