Comments/Problems:

While booting the following message appears:

Trying to move old root to /initrd ... okay
Mounted devfs on /dev
attempt to acces beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0, want=4097, limit=4096
attempt to acces beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0, want=4098, limit=4096
attempt to acces beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0, want=4099, limit=4096
attempt to acces beyond end of device
01:00: rw=0, want=4100, limit=4096
Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel
 Pres L1-A to return to the boot prom

booting with "linux init=/bin/sh" did not work. Using the option
"devfs=mount rw" also was without success. At last I tried "linux
root=/dev/rd/0 rw" with the same result.
