Ok, I've narrowed down the problem with init not being pid-1 to 2.4.x kernels and the presence of /linuxrc on the root disk. We don't want /linuxrc, since we don't need it. However, on 2.2.x, this worked fine, and on 2.4.x, the initrd code doesn't seem to know to mount /dev/ram when it falls through.
So, this tftp image has no /linuxrc, and you need to make sure you boot with this from the PROM: ok boot net root=/dev/ram This will get you by. I'm going to hold off doing 2.4.14 images until I get this resolved, and then cut some new boot disks. http://auric.debian.org/~bcollins/tftpboot-sun4u.img Ben -- .----------=======-=-======-=========-----------=====------------=-=-----. / Ben Collins -- Debian GNU/Linux \ ` [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] ' `---=========------=======-------------=-=-----=-===-======-------=--=---'
