Hello, a couple of us are having kernel panics after installing 0.8.1
and getting past Grub. I installed on a laptop, but attached is
someone's picture of a Qemu installation. I am having the same Call
Trace. The installer booted, but the first boot failed. I also notice an
error flash in between the words "loading grub" and seeing Grub, but it
disappears before I can read it. I am sure that the partition has the
suggested label /root/: checked with e2label. Also attached is my
/etc/config.scm.

I think I know your problem. In your filesystems declaration,
(file-systems (cons (file-system
(device "root")
(title 'label)
(mount-point "/")
(type "ext4"))
%base-file-systems))
You left the default pseudo entry for (device), you need to enter your
hdd partition label that you plan installing GSD on. For example it
should be like this:
(file-systems (cons (file-system
(device "/dev/sda1")
(title 'label)
(mount-point "/")
(type "ext4"))
%base-file-systems))

The first example (device "root") work if you format you HD with option
"-L". For example: mkfs.ext4 -L "root" /dev/sda1. So you can mount your
particion with command: mount -L root /mnt, and follow the
documentation.
Else the second example work without labels.
