Using init=/linuxrc allows my first script to work. However, it's a bit restrictive: if I want to override the usual boot sequence and get the kernel to mount the real root and drop into a shell I can't use this method. With the 'old-style' script, I can set "init=/bin/bash". These get applied AFTER /linuxrc terminates. If I use your method, I can't do that. I realized yesterday that my second script works if I unmount /dev/hda2 before exiting /linuxrc. Thanks, Brian ** Sent via the linuxppc-embedded mail list. See http://lists.linuxppc.org/
