Subject: Using intrd with 2.4.20-pre2
Date: Wed, 6 Nov 2002 10:32:12 -0500 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <85256C69.0053EA72.00@pine.cspi.com> (raw)
I'm getting stuck when mounting the initrd. This using the
ppc 2.4 galileo tree at 2.4.20-pre2.
I get as far as "VFS: Mounted root (rootfs filesystem)"
On linuxppc_2.4.11_devel I would see
"VFS: Mounted root (romfs filesystem) readonly"
The romfs is found and uncompressed successfully.
Is there a specific root=/dev/something I am supposed to
pass (build) into the kernel cmdline? (no console/keybd)
I've tried root=/dev/ram0, root=/dev/initrd and no root
clause all with no success.
I've uncompressed and mounted the file on a loopback
device on my Mac, so it is not corrupted.
It mounts as type romfs, not ext2, is that OK?
Thanks,
Gary Hannon
