It looks like it's not finding the root file system. I've no idea
about the make up of the device nor what media your trying to boot it
on. It's likely we're either not building the required drivers or not
loading them into the initrd to ensure the device that has the root
filesystem can be accessed.

If someone could provide more information about that it would help a lot.
