Subject: Re: Why no kernel message on my DOC system?
Date: Sun, 27 Jan 2002 04:00:58 +0000	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <F501VThKL3XUK99tGKp000144c0@hotmail.com> (raw)

Because in /dev/nftla1 there is only kernel image and initrd on it, so I 
have not tested to use 'root=/dev/nftla1' on my harddisk. But I do test to 
use lilo-mtd on my harddisk and boot from it, the kernel messages came out 
and the /proc/cmdline is: 
auto BOOT_IMAGE=blabla-doc rw root=100 console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8
On the contrary, if boot from DiskOnChip, the /proc/cmdline is 
unrecognizable strings.
