And there it stops.
I'm affraid it is related to something else though.
Sometimes it ends in:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~
EXT2-fs error (device ramdisk(1,0)): ext2_check_page: bad entry in
directory #12
: rec_len is smaller than minimal - offset=1024, inode=0, rec_len=0,
name_len=0

~~~~~~~~~~~
After a rebuild without any changes to my rootfilesystem!
How I make my image:
dd if=/dev/zero of=ramdisk.image bs=1k count=4096
mkfs.ext2 -F ramdisk.image
mount -o loop ramdisk.image mnt
sync; sync; sync; sync; sync; sync
umount mnt
fsck.ext2 -p ramdisk.image
gzip -9 ramdisk.image
make zImage.initrd
Somtimes it starts up till here:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~
init started: BusyBox v0.60.5 (2005.12.01-00:25+0000) multi-call binary
Please press Enter to activate this console.
BusyBox v0.60.5 (2005.12.01-00:25+0000) Built-in shell (ash)
Enter 'help' for a list of built-in commands.
sh: can't access tty; job control turned off
# ls -l
Please press Enter to activate this
console.~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
But even then things are not good...
So you can think of corruption of the rootfs but everytime i have
checked it
on my linux system and nothing is wrong.
So perhaps my memory is corrupt? Memory test do not reveal this.
If you have any hints or ideas, please share them!!
Best regards,
Jaap.

Well, I never see that exact text, plus it's hard to tell much from such
a short snippet. Could you provide a more complete transcript of your
con- sole output?
