I'm trying to boot up my board (very similar to sandpoint using MPC8245) with kernel 2.6.12.3, and most of it is working but console will display up to, [snip] RAMDISK: Compressed image found at block 0 VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly. Freeing unused kernel memory: 112k init = =20 I've done series of printk in sys_execve() to see if /sbin/init is working, and found out it went thru the whole rcS file okay. Mind you, printk is successfully displaying the output on the console while I'm still not getting anything from the user processes. Having all the kernel boot up log on console means that I've done some part right. But why am I not getting anything from the user processes on the console screen ? Is there anything I need to do on the kernel config ? --=20 Daniel
