Thank you all for good suggestions. It turned out that ELDK default setup does not have any dev files. How do I create all the dev files I need?
>[root at karla2 dev]# ls >initctl log null Also, I have a general question about Embedded Linux. What is the reasonable amount of flash to have for a minimally configured Embedded Linux system? My target will be running small (<<1MB) program which will take commands over TCP/IP network. So, I want to know how much flash memory we should put on our custom target. We do not need support for PCI/Video/Sound/HD/SCSI/Parallel port/... All we need from the OS is network support. Probably using Linux is an overkill but since it's free. :) Thank you for any input. Brian Is this normal? Do I now need to configure the target file system to enable telnet? >>Or is there still something wrong with my bootargs? > >It's not normal.
