Hello, i am currently working on a BSP for yocto in order to support a custom PowerPC board. In the meantime, i have setup all the config to generate a properly running 3.14 kernel and devicetree but still have some issues with the rootfs that is produced by yocto. I chose cpio.gz as image format for the rootfs which is converted via the u-boot mkimage-tool to a compatible .uRamdisk image.
I already tested the kernel with a rootfs image which was not generated by yocto and it works fine. Unfortunately, the yocto generated image seems to have problems with Init (target is core-image-minimal, my bsp doesn't modify anything except adding support for the target board by specifying kernel config and devicetree). Here you can see the kernel log at the point where init seems to fail: console [netcon0] enabled netconsole: network logging started rtc-rx8581 0-0051: setting system clock to 2012-04-24 09:29:17 UTC (1335259757) Freeing unused kernel memory: 200K (c0525000 - c0557000) Failed to execute /init (error -13) INIT: version 2.88 booting Starting hwclock: can't open '/dev/misc/rtc': No such file or directory Stopping syslogd/klogd: no syslogd found; none killed Deconfiguring network interfaces... ifdown: interface lo not configured ifdown: interface eth0 not configured done.

Unmounting local filesystems... /etc/rc0.d/S40umountfs: line 22: can't create /dev/null: Read-only file system reboot: Power down System Halted, OK to turn off power I assume, if i am able to generate a working kernel using yocto, the rootfs image automatically generated by yocto for target core-image-minimal is not supposed to fail? I appreciate any help with this issue! kind regards, chris
