List,
I have a question regarding the value given to MINIROOTSIZE in a kernel
configuration file.
I have a working ramdisk build (4.1) which has a MINIROOTSIZE of 23000.
Howeverr I try a MINIROOTSIZE of 32768 and the boot stalls at the entry
point part. Please see below:

Any ideas why this is and what needs to be done to stop the stalling?
My board has the following memory, if that helps.
real mem = 132657152 (129548K)
avail mem = 106545152 (104048K)
Thanks for your time

You just don't know it. So who's really in jail?
