I've heard of the same thing happening on another system; turned out that
(for whatever reason) the INIT executable was trashed.

Try booting with the RAMdisk again, mounting the harddisk partition, and
copying over the INIT binary from the CDROM (I don't know if the RAMdisk
INIT is the correct one to use?).
