I have created own AMI and registered it on Amazon EC2. But while AMI startup I receive following error:
Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(8,1)
The image is running locally without any problems.
fstab contains:
proc /proc proc defaults 0 0
/dev/sda1 / ext3 relatime,errors=remount-ro 0 1
The image was created with following command
ec2-bundle-image -i image.raw -r i386 -c cert-xxx.pem -k pk-xxx.pem --user 123456
