RE: Upgrading to kernel 2.4.6 with old init program

Thanks for your help. The new ld.so.1 fixed the problem. I am thinking that I should rebuild the code with the latest libraries so that we don't have to have both versions available. Is there an ftp site where I can get the sources for all of the executables that you need in a ramdisk?

I am upgrading my Linux kernel from 2.2.13 to 2.4.6 on an MPC823. When the kernel startup process gets to running the sbin/init program I am getting
a
usage error for ld.so and then a kernel panic. It looks like it is attempting to run ld.so. I am still using an old ramdisk with old versions of executables that ran successfully on Linux 2.2.13. Have the file

changed somehow? Do I need to get the source for the executables and

them with the latest libraries? If so, where can I get them?
This souns as if you are still running code based on libc-1.99. You need a modified version of /lib/ld.so.1 then. There is one on our FTP server, AFAIR in ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/LinuxPPC/usr/src/ld.so* (or maybe in the "patches" directory?).
