Hi, Thanks for the reply. I am using the default initramfs given in usr directory of source code. Actually I copied linux image to SD card and ext2fs to SCSI device. I passed one of kernel parameters as root=/dev/sda1. thats why It is getting detected. I am the new one. so do know much. -----Original Message----- From: Thorsten Schulz <stehbrettsegeln@xxxxxx> Sent: Thursday, May 8, 2008 3:38am To: abhiruchi.g@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: linux-mips@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx <linux-mips@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: Re: Alchemy DB1200 Hi, do you actually have that console device on your usb-stick? mknod -m 0600 /path/to/stick/dev/console c 5 1 mknod -m 0777 /path/to/stick/mnt/dev/null c 1 3 Thorsten PS btw. could you mail me your config/initramfslist/init how you got the kernel to boot the rootfs from usb, i never managed to.
