* psplash wierdness @ 2015-09-23 15:09 Andy Pont 0 siblings, 0 replies; 3+ messages in thread From: Andy Pont @ 2015-09-23 15:09 UTC (permalink / raw) To: yocto I have spent all morning fine tuning psplash on a PXE booting system using an NFS mounted root file system (all built with Yocto 1.8 for the intel-core2-32 machine) and all is exactly as I need. When I boot the system using an initrd of the same file system the first output from the init process is: /etc/init.d/rc: /etc/rcS.d/S00psplash.sh: line 28: can't open '/dev/null' Line 28 of S00psplash.sh corresponds to the call to /usr/bin/psplash to display the image to hide the init messages. Am I being a complete numpty (highly probable) or have I missed something about using an initrd? Thanks, Andy. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

Bit more thought needed here... Andy. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
