It should run even with your command line. Try to give it also the mem and the ubd1 parameter, which are respectively, the amount of RAM and a swap partition. I tried the BusyBox image for amd64 and it perfectly works. > > I get the following "error": > > Locating the top of the address space ...

I hope it's nothing too idiotic on my part, hehe. Humans being doing something make errors. Who doesn't make anything can't make mistakes!!! :) I don't know what the problem is. Try a different root filesystem image. > > Thanks once again in advance, Not at all, Flavio > > David. > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
