hello I want to boot linux without ramdisk.
The purpose not using ramdisk is to speed up the boot time of my computer while Load the ramdisk used about 15s in my computer. The system have start up successfully, but there are some problems: I have boot my system by add root=/dev/sda2 fastboot read-write to /boot/silo.conf root=/dev/sda2 is bad on multi-disk servers, so I want to know is there any way possible to use uuid as the root device when ramdisk is no used? use read-write is because the /sbin/init in userspace filesystem can't run successful when the filesystem is mounted readonly. but in a system with ramdisk, the root filesystem is mounted read only when init, why can't mine? as i know, the ramdisk is died after the switch_root program run. use fastboot is to skip the fsck, because run fsck on a mounted filesystem is bad. but no fsck is not good, I really want to know how does the system check the filesystem exactly after the filesystem is mounted. sometimes boot error: ata1.00: qc timeout (cmd 0xec) ata1.00: failed to IDENTYFY (I/O error, err_mask=0x4) ata1: SATAlink up 3.0 Gbps (SStatus 123 SControl 0) any help? thanks!
