Re: emdebian rootfs



Hi,
please reply to the previous message on the list - not post a whole
new message. Its better to keep everything in a single thread so
people can follow or ignore it more easilly.

I've copied your second message below.

Just plain Martin,  it's my first name.

If rootfs.img already contains your root filesystem (which it does by
your previous explanations) I think root should be /dev/hda not
/dev/ram.

You only use /dev/ram together with the -initrd option when you have a
ramdisk image in addition or instead of a harddisk image [one example
of this is using an empty harddisk image and an installer ramdisk
image]

As I said in my previous reply you need to ensure your kernel contains
everything needed to mount the rootfs.
