Well i have a machine with mandrake 9.1 installed with kernel 2.4.21.
After installation it was working properly.But one day suddenly at
boot time it gave following message:
mount error 6:ext3 flags
kernel panic:No init found.try passing init= option to the kernel.



Is this the complete dump of the error messages ? Have you changed anything ? Recompiled the kernel etc ?

I have already run fsck on all partitions and all partitions are ok
now.but still i can't boot.

How did you run fsck if the system doesn't boot ?

Does any one have any idea about this specific mount error number 6.

man mount suggests that 6 is the combination of error codes 2 & 4 :

2 system error (out of memory, cannot fork, no more loop devices)
4 internal mount bug or missing nfs support in mount

--Swapnil
