Re: Target filesystem doesnt have /sbin/init

[Joost Kraaijeveld <J.Kraaijeveld@Askesis.nl>]

Hi,

I have the same problem using Etch AMD64 (updated with all the latest
versions as of this morning, ) , booting with Grub. I have read Bob's
mail but I do not understand his solution.

Bob, or anyone else, could you explain your solution a bit more? Maybe
annotate the excerpt/file below?

Excerpt from menu.lst:

title		Debian GNU/Linux, kernel 2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp
root		(hd0,0)
kernel		/boot/vmlinuz-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp root=/dev/sda1 ro 
initrd		/boot/initrd.img-2.6.16-2-amd64-k8-smp

boot

TIA
