This is an important clue!  When you can not run rc.sysinit, the system
is realy messed up!  Try booting using "linux init=/bin/bash" and see if
that works.  If that fails, try "linux init=/bin/ash.static", or try
booting using a rescue disk system, and see what is wrong.  If you do
get a prompt by using init=<shell>, then look at /etc/rc.d/rc.sysinit,
and see if you can find what is wrong with it.

    Do not meddle in the affairs of dragons,
 for you are crunchy and taste good with ketchup.
