Hi sander,

        This also has been tried but the result is same

        Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.  Try passing init= option to

Hi Meher,

You should make a symlink from /init to /bin/busybox, in stead of
/sbin/init to busybox. At startup, Linux will try to run /init (mind the
slash). If it cannot find it, Linux will panic.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Sander

Subject: Problem with root file system in flash

Hi,
      I am not sure if this is the right list for this question but I
guess many of you might have tried with root file system on flash so I
will test my luck.

I am using 2.6.10 kernel and when I use JFFS2 as my root file system I
get the following error while booting:

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NET: Registered protocol family 2
IP: routing cache hash table of 512 buckets, 4Kbytes

VFS: Mounted root (jffs2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 108k freed
Warning: unable to open an initial console.
Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found.  Try passing init= option to
kernel.

I made a file system with busybox and made sure I have symbolic links
for /sbin/init-->/bin/busybox and /dev/console is present with major 5
and minor num of 1.

I made a JFFS2 image using the command:

mkfs.jffs2 <src_dir> -o <dst_file.img>

Am I doing anything wrong here :( Any pointers will be greatly
appreciated
