[Qemu-discuss] qemu usage help

[beyond.hack]

hello list,
I am just starting out with qemu and confused with the execution of a command as it is giving one or other other..

$qemu-system-i386 -kernel <mykernelimage> -initrd <my initramfs> -append "root=/dev/hda1 console=ttyS0,115200n8 console=tty0" 

here I replaced /dev/hda1 with my /dev/sda5 (my root) still it is not executing ...

Attached is the error log being displayed by the QEMU...

any help is highly needed..

Regards
