Hi,
I try to run linuxppc_2_5 (ramdisk size = 4096KB and initrd supported) with a root fs (build by myself) on a Force powerCore 6750 board with the following configuration : root =/dev/ram
Here , I can not pass commond string the kernel , so I have to modify the file arch/ppc/kernel/setup.c direct
- sprintf(cmd_line,/*"nfsroot=10.0.0.69:/opt/hardhat/devkit/ppc/4xx/target */"ip=autoconf");
+ sprintf(cmd_line,"root=/dev/ram")
Then make zImage.initrd to get a kernel image -- zImage.initrd.pcore and I burn it to user_flash1
But - the start-info shows as follows:

Questions:
1)Why can't linux mount the root filessystem? How to mount ?
2)Can linux mount the flash as it's root filesystem direct?
