Hi Jeff
I was able to compile with our filesystem with the linux executable as
initramfs and it runs. if I run just ./linux it does show
up to:
UML running in SKAS0 mode
and it does not print anything else. Although I noticed that it spawned only
1 process more. But If I run with ./linux mem=128M it does print all the way
until:
Couldn't stat "root_fs" : err = 2
Failed to initialize ubd device 0 :Couldn't determine size of device's file
line_ioctl: tty0: unknown ioctl: 0x541e
Doing Startup... <==my rcS
Finishing Startup <==end of rcS
/bin/sh: can't open tty0 <=busybox.
and I see 4 process running. So it does run but I need to specify the memory
size. Here the question is why? I need to figure it out the console issue
and who is doing the unknown iotcl(I think is busybox but I will have to
investigate).
Thanks
David Rodriguez
