On a Sun T1000 I am trying to boot 2.6.20 using initramfs. (I use the same
procedure successfully on x86_64 and itanium2 servers).
The relevent silo section looks like this:
image=/boot/2.6.20.image
label=2.6.20
initrd=/boot/2.6.20.initramfs
partition=2
read-only
The kernel loads and boots and I see
(...)
So it knows about the initramfs, but then tries to mount a root filesystem
instead...
I haven't tried this (initramfs) with earlier kernels, so I don't know
whether this is a regression. Any clues about how to solve this would be
greatly appreciated.
Does it make a difference if you embed initramfs directly in the kernel?
CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE="/path/to/your/initramfs/directory"
