Don't know. Why don't you try either the ramdisk image or the NFS root file system that comes included with the ELDK? Both are known to work fine, and testing should take less than 5 minutes. > Kernel command line: root=/dev/mtdblock2 rw rootfstype=jffs2 > ip=192.168.0.7:192. ... How did you create the root file system image, and how did you write it to flash? > devfs_register(ttyS): could not append to parent, err: -17 > devfs_register(ttyS): could not append to parent, err: -17 > devfs_register(cua): could not append to parent, err: -17 > devfs_register(cua): could not append to parent, err: -17 This doesn't look so good to me. I recommend to disable devfs in your kernel configuration. ... Eventually the kernel does not find the needed /dev/ entries. Make sure what your root filesystem expects. Does it really use devfs?
