Re: need some clarifications concerning rootf mounting

Thanks for your answer. Ok, here is what I have exactly done: - compiled with my uClibc cross-compiler a simple hello world program. - written a basic config file in linux-2.6.37/usr, creating a dev/console, a /init from /usr/hello and some other dirs. - edited the .config file with CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE = ......./usr/config_file and selected CONFIG_INITRAMFS_COMPRESSION_GZIP=y - built the kernel - launched vmlinux and received the "kernel panic: junk in compressed archive" error message In the source code, initrd_start ans initrd_end appears. if i want to use initramfs support (and not initrd support), should I do something special in "setup_arch()" in order to initialize these symbols? thakns in advance
