Re: NFS root woes: No init found

Hello,

if you get to the bash prompt you could try to start the init program
manually. This should result in more useful error messages.

Hope it helps,

Wolfgang.

Thanks

First, try using something simple like /bin/bash as your init program.
Trying to start up the init program relies on lots of things being
present in the file system.  If the program starts, and then exits,
you still get this message.

Just use a trivial, simple file system to get started.  A shell,
couple of commands and minimal libraries are easier to debug.

Good luck :-)
