Basically, block device, initrd support for ramdisk should be enabled:
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD
SCSI support needs to be enabled for SCSI disks:
CONFIG_SCSI
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_SD
Your filesystem support should be enabled:
CONFIG_EXT3_FS
CONFIG_EXT2_FS
Double check your .config file.
I have checked all the above and are enabled in the config. I have tried changing the kernel command line argumnets.
I get the same error saying: (All from init/main.c)
----
unable to open an initial console
No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.
-----
One more thing to say is I am using 3 systems in total due to compiler problem:
System A - Test M/c
System B - Acts as Host M/c only when i test the kernel on the System A. (Next to SysA ; SysA & SysB are serially connected )
System C- To build the kernel . I am copying the bzImage , initrd, system.map to System A (Test M/c ) and vmlinux to
System B to test the kernel. (System C is a very remote system. )
Hope this set up doesn't have anything with this issue.
