Hello,

I probably miss something trivial.
I cloned the git://git.yoctoproject.org/poky.git
I build on a 64 bit machine a qemux86-64
(. ./oe-init-build-env qemux86-64 and changing the conf/local.conf)
I build the core-image-sato & core-image-minimal.
Then I try to run with
runqemu qemux86-64 core-image-sato ext3

But both sato and minimal give me this message:
Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.

As runqemu showed me the full command line I tried to add the --append
command line option
init=/sbin/init and /sbin/init.sysvinit
But that did not help (there's a message saying Failed to execute
/sbin/init. Attempting defaults...)
I verified by mounting these ext3 images on a loop device that there's
really a /sbin/init present.

Can somebody tell what I'm doing wrong?

BTW is there any way to not have to run qemu with root permissions?
I ran the android emulator and it does not require me to be root.
Should I configure something on my Ubuntu machine to get qemu to function?

Thanks,
francis

Hi,

After a lot of searching with Google I have found this is a common 
problem, unfortunately none of the solutions I have found, fix the 
problem.

The original error I got was:

Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.  Try passing init= option to kernel.

The command line option was:
root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=jffs2 rw console=ttyMCS mem=64M at 0x0

I after digging around with google, I found a suggestion which I tried, I made my command line:
root=/dev/mtdblock3 rootfstype=jffs2 rw console=ttyMCS mem=64M at 0x0 init=/sbin/init panic=4

But I now get the following error:

Freeing init memory: 88K
Failed to execute /sbin/init.  Attempting defaults...
Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.  Try passing init= option to kernel.

I can see that the Root drive is being mounted.

The contents of the init file is:

#!/bin/busybox ash
/bin/busybox mount -t sysfs /dev/sys /sys
/bin/busybox mount -t proc  /proc
/bin/busybox mount -t devpts /dev/pts
# Populate /dev according to /sys
/bin/busybox mdev -s
/bin/busybox --install -s
/linuxrc
exec /sbin/init "$@"?  </dev/console >/dev/console 2>&1

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this please? 


Kind regards

Andrew Ellis
