I understand that, but not why you need to run e2fsck before the
switch_root. Is this to do with the way your system is set up? The
object of the initramfs is only to get the system into a state where /
can be mounted and switch_root run, I assume you are trying to do more
than that with it.
The objective is to get /, /usr, /var and any other directory path the
user feels is needed mounted before udev starts. This is a
continuation of the "udev now sucks" thread from a few months ago.
I need to fsck / before I mount /usr, /var and everything else.
Now it makes sense, but can't you use busybox fsck?
I thought the file system was mounted ro, then the file system checks
done, then remounted rw and boot continues on? I see mine do this
without the init thingy and from what I see as things zoom by, that is
what it does. What am I missing here?
Just curious. No flaming please.
