Thanks - removing the if (func==1) do_exit(0); part does give similar
behaviour as before - kernel warns five times, then shuts up (without
change, warns twice only, and /sbin/update no longer runs).

Removing the syscall from the m68k syscall table altogether still gives
a working ramdisk. /sbin/update is still running, so evidently doesn't
care about the invalid syscall result ...

Cheers,

Michael
