Hi,
i would like to use mdev on my device, but got some problems implementing
it. First of all the device is booted over the network with pxe and the root
is mounted over nfs read only.
If i use the normal baselayout, i can boot the device and login without
problems.
I wanted to mount the /dev dir read/write so i can use mdev to populate the
dir. I tried it with mount -n -t ramfs none /dev in the inittab, but now the
system hangs right after "Freeing unused kernel memory".
Here are my config files:
/etc/inittab:
=======
# Startup the system
#null::sysinit:/bin/mount -o remount,rw /
null::sysinit:/bin/mount -t proc none /proc
null::sysinit:/bin/mount -t sysfs none /sys
