hi,all
In the process of porting linux to a new board, I got a very strange thing:
Booting infomation:
.......
mice: PS/2 mouse device common for all mice
VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem) readonly.
Freeing unused kernel memory: 64k init
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~before this, everything is OK.
INIT: version 2.84 booting
Welcome....
From "INIT", system seems to start very slowly. "INIT" and other kernel infomation were printed out character by character with some kind of delay between them.It took even five minutes to mount a proc file system.
What could be the problem?
Is this becuase of disk configuation problem since init is the first program got called from disk?
