I would post this at the forum on the official website but i am awaiting my membership approval and figure that there must be somebody at yahoo answers who can help me

Answer 1

First of all, I am not an expert, but it looks like the loop image did not get mounted properly, and so the startup commands that expect to find things in /initrd/loopfs are unable to.

Sorry I am unable to give any more help. Hope this might get you a step farther while you wait for your membership.
