Hi list
I need help and pointers, to get rootfs on ramdisk. I've build kernel and
ram image and when the kernel try to boot, the kernel always want to load
rootfs from NFS. Please see attached output. And I'm not sure how kernel
know here to find ramdisk etc.. Please help with the following:
1. A list of kernel configuration options need to set, to be able to use
ramdisk as rootfs.
2. Definative u-boot command line to let kernel know where the ramdisk image
is and to use it as rootfs.
3. How to disable kernel from trying to mount rootfs via NFS.
Thanks so much in advance.
