BTW, FYI, to get the nfs root mount to work, i had to append the cmdline paramters like: "root=nfs rw ip=auto" at first, i didn't add that since netroot_string is declared in misc-embedded.c and the old kernel i had mounted the root filesystem without the 'root=' parm. well, that was a change. ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list.
