    Hello user5224871,

    While the kernel gives the control to user space it first looks for /sbin/init then later searches for /bin/sh if the first /sbin/init has not found, if the both files are not found in the end it panics and prints "Attempted to kill init!" message.

    Reviewing your log I see that the mmcblk0p2 has recovered from corrupted stage and later the /bin/sh has not found too and "Attempted to kill init!" message appeared as expected.

    What corrupted your file system is unclear. It can be caused by a cold reboot or electricity cut, bugs in ext driver or not updated software packages or by your hardware design or wear leveling.

    Best regards,
    Kemal
