Subject: busybox does not like 2.4.8, or the other way around?
Date: Thu, 20 Sep 2001 18:21:49 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3BAA962D.C55F2239@mvista.com> (raw)


I have a small busybox userland that works fine with 2.4.2 kernel, but failed
with the latest 2.4.8 kernel.  The symptom is that it is stuck at the
following prompt:

================
....
Kernel command line: console=ttyS0,115200 ip=bootp
....
Freeing unused kernel memory: 4k freed
Algorithmics/MIPS FPU Emulator v1.4
serial console detected.  Disabling virtual terminals.
init started:  BusyBox v0.51 (2001.07.18-06:43+0000) multi-call binary

Please press Enter to activate this console.
================

A simple test shows the console is still working, i.e., pressing a key *does*
generate an interrupt and ISR *does* read the correct char value.

I really cannot think of anything else that might make busybox stuck here. 
Any clue?  Anybody else is using busybox with more recent kernels?
