Topic: Help ..root image seems to be blank. Kernel panic - No init found.

I've been making firmware for my Huawei HG255D these days ,but it's driving me mad.

I made all necessary changes so the hardware should work fine just like <DreamBox> does.

I ran through make and everything looked fine except the .bin  buildroot produced is only 1.3 Mbytes large

Then i flashed the image ,and it was not able to boot. it says:

Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. 

I think it's very likely that the root file system the image contain is total blank .

Where could the problem be ?
What should i do ?
I'm very new to openwrt . . and help is very needed...

Maybe your command line param was not right for your rootfs.
Could do you share your configs? I'm investigating this router now,
and I have no a full configs on it.

Thanks!
