I am using Ubuntu 14.04 LTS dual boot with windows 8. Yesterday I was installing hadoop on my system and suddenly Ubuntu stopped working. So I have to power it off directly by pressing and holding power button. After that when I restarted Ubuntu i got this error.

Kernel Panic

I have googled a lot and after that i was able to remove this error for a moment and getting a new error:

Target filesystem doesn't have requested /sbin/init

I have tried this solution given here

And I was able to boot into system but unable to login so when I restarted my system again i started getting the kernel panic - not syncing: Attempted to kill init! exitcode = 0x00007f00

I need to boot into system as many of my projects are under progress So reinstalling Ubuntu is not a option for me.

Any help will be appreciated and thanks in advance.
