loadlin vmlinuz-2.2.5-15 -v ramdisk=49152 initrd=mynitrd.gz hdc=cdrom lp=0x378 ppa=0x278 # (/linuxrc as given in rescue.img. # cat /proc/sys/kernel/real-root-dev is right for my # for my umsdos root filesystem's device.) insmod /modules/fat.o # Required for (u)msdos. insmod /modules/msdos.o # Required for umsdos. insmod /modules/umsdos.o # For (re)booting into my umsdos root filesystem. exit # Let the (re)boot begin. VFS: (it's an msdos filesystem.) kernel panic: Can't find init. Well, of course it can't find init. It called my root filesystem msdos, rather than umsdos, and "promotion" didn't occur. How can I make this thing boot a umsdos root filesystem? fmacall fcm
