Which board and setup did you test with? On a whim, I tired this on the warp platform (440EP) and got the same result with basically the same setup. VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem). Freeing unused kernel memory: 156k init init started: BusyBox v1.9.1 (2008-04-04 14:47:35 EDT) And then hung. This was against 2.6.26-rc9. Cheers, Sean
