Hi All Im trying to use a cramfs image as a root-file system at kernel boot time.
I've built a cramfs image, copied it into my flash device (mtd3), and can successfully mount it at runtime. However at boot time I use root=dev/mtdblock3 (or dev/mtd3 im not sure which one to use) and I get the following errors... NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0. Root-NFS: No NFS server available, giving up. VFS: Unable to mount root fs via NFS, trying floppy. request_module[block-major-2]: Root fs not mounted VFS: Cannot open root device "mtdblock3" or 02:00 Please append a correct "root=" boot option Kernel panic: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on 02:00 Now, is it possible to do what Im trying to do, if so are there any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong?
