Mukund, I did followed above step, but there must be 
something terribly missing from either you or me.

I deleted the /dev/hda4 partition & again followed yr
instructions carefully. Would you kindly check yr
steps please ? What linux distro you used for creating
the small distro ?  May be some problem with Debain
libs etc...?

By the way when I used "mknod X Y /mnt/tmp/dev/hda4"
as suggested by you, it flashed the error - "Wrong No.
of
arguments - Check 'mknod --help' for more details "

"ls -al /dev/hda4" gave me :

brw-rw---- 1 root dsik  3, 4 Nov 30 2000  /dev/hda4


So I tried this successfully :-

mknod /mnt/tmp/hda4  b  3  4 

Is it OK - i.e.  "b  3  4"  ?

But still the same ugly error pop'ed : 

VFS: Mounted root ( ext2 filesystem ) readonly
Freeing unused kernel memory: 148K freed
Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init=option
to kernel.

Pl guide !
