I have CONFIG_TMPFS and , and CONFIG_DEVTMPFS_MOUNT, and it works with
everything but initrd of type "ext2"
I am thus asking 2 questions to myself
1) Why does the ISO image imply an ext2 initrd , instead of a cpio ?
2) Why does ext2 not work with devtmpfs (the answer is likely somewhere
in the kernel sources and I will take a look as well) ?
