Hi! I have the following problem with my Thecus N2100:
The Thecus won't boot with the installed kernel (stock debian, vmlinuz-2.6.30-1-iop32x), as it is unable to find its root. (serial console showing "Waiting for root device") I traced the problem down; it seems that there is an discrepancy betweens Redboot's opionion of the location of the root device, and the opinion of the initrd. exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/ram0 initrd=0xa0800000,42M mem=2...@0xa0000000") while exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 root=/dev/md0 initrd=0xa0800000,42M mem=2...@0xa0000000" would boot the system. I don't know what changed, but currently I assume that a) the initrd should autodetect/override the root=/dev/ram0 to /dev/md0 or b) I should update the redboot boot script Personally I don't like messing with b), so I'd like to override to the correct root. For that, I'd need a pointer where to look.... Thanks for helping!
