If this is a new initrd, then something that bit me was that I needed to run 
ldconfig on it - I'm not entirely sure what circumstances force this, but the 
following commands did it for me:

mkdir /tmp/mnt
mount -o loop initrd.img /tmp/mnt
/sbin/ldconfig -r /tmp/mnt -f /tmp/mnt/etc/ld.so.conf

It took me over a day to figure out why it was panicing.
Not sure if this is what your problem is, but worth a go if you're still 
having problems.

good luck
