Error - Kernel panic - not syncing:VFS:unable to mount root fs on unknown block (0,0)

[selvakumar nagendran]

  I installed the latest stable 2.6.9 kernel in my
system. When I rebooted the system with the kernel it
showed the following error.
 
     "Kernel panic - not syncing:VFS:unable to mount
root fs on unknown block (3,1)"

    What is the solution to get rid of this error? 
    What is the measure to prevent such errors in the
future?
     I downloaded the kernel source tar ball from
kernel.org
    Can anyone help me regarding this?

Thanks,
selva
