Usually, kernel panics have some explanatory text surrounding them.
One common cause of panics is not having a necessary driver built
into the kernel. When the kernel tries to look for files, and doesn't
have drivers enabling it to mount '/', it can't proceed.
It could be that you have the drivers necessary to read the USB
stick, but not the disc drive you have on your machine which
the kernel wants to be '/'.
Anyway, posting some information here about the panic is probably
a very good first step, because there are people here with
experience dealing with kernel boot panics and common causes.
