    First off, "n00b" tends to a derogatory term. "newbie" is more
    applicable here.

    The error means you have no init binary on your root filesystem. The
    installation must
    have failed somehow for this to have happened. Can you provide more
    information about
    what you've done during your installation attempt?

    .
    .
    .
    <0>Kernel panic Attempted to kill init!

    Then I just press Enter. And there is an error to:
    .
    .
    .
    Freeing unused kernel memory: 96 k freed
    Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.
