Hi
I've created the /dev/console and i've modified
/boot/parmfile, as indicated, and now i have:
RAMDISK: cramfs filesystem found at block 0
RAMDISK: Loading 2036 blocks ]1 disk( into ram disk...
done.
VFS: Mounted root (cramfs filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 84k freed
initrd-tools: 0.1.78
pivot_root: No such file or directory
/sbin/init: 431: cannot open dev/console: No such file
Kernel panic: Attempted to kill init!
HCPGIR450W CP entered; disabled wait PSW 000A0000
800306C4
now what? :-(
