Initramfs problem on virtex4fx

Initramfs problem on virtex4fx

[schardt]

Hi all,

i try to run linux from flash with the initramfs as root filesystem.
i wrote a simple hello_world as init to test the initramfs.

the kernel boots normaly, but instead of the complete "Hello World" i
see only "He"
and the system hangs.

Does anyone have similar problems ? And solved it ? ;)

Regards
Georg

additional i tried a initramfs rootfs with busybox

Freeing unused kernel memory: 1944k init
init started: BusyBox v1.7.0 (2007-11-07 14:29:33 CET)
starting pid 152eth0: XTemac: Options: 0xb8f2
eth0: XTemac: We renegotiated the speed to: 1000
eth0: XTemac: speed set to 1000Mb/s
, tty '': '/etc/init.d/

this looks very strange to me....

    The Pico Linux BSP uses initramfs.  The whole Pico Linux development
environment including busybox and an initramfs  cross compilers, Linux
source - pretty much everything you need is at
http://www.picocomputing.com/downloads/software.php, everything is
incorporated into a Colinux install, though you can just pull out the
necescary peices - the cross compiler, busy box, intramfs and linux
source if you are working completely under linux.
