Kernel Panic

I want make a Linux Distro - very simple: I make it for limitated things, such as reading some configuration file, editing them, or copying files by other disk (maybe the SAM & SYSTEM from a Windows OS); so won't have a graphical interface.
So I use isolinux, I configured it, and i put the linux kernel and the initrd.gz.
All was ok; but when I decided to add some programs, exactly:

/bin/bash
/usr/bin/id
/usr/bin/lynx

(I archivied the initrd again and rewrited the "distro" in a CD). When the kernel load the new initrd, it prints something like:

Code: Select all

"Kernel Panic: can't open initrd filesystem: can't run /init"
I don't know why this: I haven't modified the /init script....

Any suggestion/solution?

Thanks,
azzka

This forum is about creating your own operating system, not about Linux or creating Linux distros. You better take your questions somewhere else.
