Hi, Will the kernel relocate the ramdisk automaticly by it self? Or by u-boot? Any requirement for the kernel version? Thanks & best regards, Mike On Fri, Dec 19, 2008 at 6:31 AM, RHS Linux User wrote: > > Hi, > > So exactly what do I have to do? Can I just load it into memory by > whatever m

Hi, So exactly what do I have to do? Can I just load it into memory by whatever means (my debugger) and just start it? Does the file relocate itself once started? GOTTA get this working!! Sounds VERY useful :). warm regards, John On Thu, 18 Dec 2008, Stephen Gutknecht (hilltx)

Yes, I have used it with u-boot to perform a tftp boot of OpenWRT without touching the flash memory of a router. Example on the OpenWRT forum: http://forum.openwrt.org/viewtopic.php?id=17975 Really ideal way to test experimental builds. Stephen On Thu, Dec 18, 2008 at 7:23 AM, mike xu wrote
