List-ID: Again and again. The ESIEE file system does not work. The kernel is built myself (not from ESIEE !!!) and the nfs_root is set to ESIEE. The problem is, that the init or other processes like shell do not start. The hang before any output is done. I instruemented the kernel for testing stdout via /dev/console and to print out where it is. In the kernel everything is perfect. No process is able to start (giver per init= command line or patched in init/main.c in the kernel tree. Also an old trick of mine, starting the bash or init via strace from the kernel (calling strace instead of init in execve) does not work, noi reaction, the system seems to be halted or no I/O is working, or perhaps there is a problem with the shared libraries. Is there something to do special by building the kernel to use ESIEE ??
