[Buildroot] switch_root...

[nickich]

Hi,

When I use switch_root I have an error "not rootfs", which comes from the
condition !S_ISREG(st1.st_mode). When I remove this condition, all seems to
work fine (or at least I think so).

What is this check for? 
Can it be removed safely? 
What's wrong with my system to break here?

Regards,
Nikolay

Are you talking about the busybox switch_root applet? If so, then
better ask on the busybox list (busybox at busybox.net).

Yes, I mean busybox.
