I am using the linux kernel 2.6.15 and initrd ramdisk image from ELDK 4.0. Currently, I seem to be able to boot without errors, but after the root filesystem is mounted, things just stop.
I'm guessing that my problems are related to the setup of the RFS, and more specifically, my inittab file. Here is the output I get at boot time: Linux version 2.6.15 (cdumoulin at localhost.localdomain) (gcc version 4.0.0 (DENX ELDK 4.0 4.0.0)) #167 PREEMPT Thu Jun 8 6Built 1 zonelists Kernel command line: console=ttyS0,57600 ip=off PID hash table entries: 512 (order: 9, 8192 bytes) Console: colour dummy device 80x25 Dentry cache hash table entries: 16384 (order: 4, 65536 bytes) Inode-cache hash table entries: 8192 (order: 3, 32768 bytes) Memory: 62120k available (968k kernel code, 272k data, 76k init, 0k highmem) Mount-cache hash table entries: 512 checking if image is initramfs...it isn't (no cpio magic); looks like an initrd Freeing initrd memory: 1404k freed Linux NoNET1.0 for Linux 2.6 io scheduler noop registered io scheduler anticipatory registered io scheduler deadline registered io scheduler cfq registered Software Watchdog Timer: 0.07 initialized. soft_noboot=0 soft_margin=60 sec (nowayout= 0) ipmi message handler version 38.0 ipmi device interface IPMI Watchdog: driver initialized i8042.c: No controller found.
