So you system doesn't boot I guess? If I'm correct, where does it stop? BTW. linuxrc is executed when kernel preparing namespace, that is after all initializations, preparing devices... it is in 'init' thread. -- Ah, kakor pot je nase zivljenje, temna, zavita, LP, Jure brez dalj - V prsi zabodeno hrepenenje, negativni total. -- ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.

You are wrong. It depends on the kernel configuration and some other things. > BTW. linuxrc is executed when kernel preparing namespace, that is after all > initializations, preparing devices... it is in 'init' thread. If you run in a "standalone shell" environment, there is nothing that will even bother to check if a /linuxrc exists. Wolfgang Denk ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.

Check the conditions WHEN a /linuxrc file gets executed, and compare with your kernel configuration and start procedure. There will be some difference.
