Don't do this. Email is a plain text medium only.

Read the netiquette, and quote properly.

[surabhi --- start] could you please guide me how to provide a working
file system on SDRAM before decompressing the Linux Image on SDRAM. Is
it really related to init process failed.

It is obviously related -there was a clear  error  message  that  the
uncompressing of the cramfs filesystem failed.

Is the below doesn't mean that the mounted one is working one ?
"VFS: Mounted root (cramfs filesystem) readonly.
 Mounted devfs on /dev "

No, not at all. You can for example mount an empty  filesystem  -  it
will mount perfectly fine, but it still doesn't work.


You should also read my message until the end; I asked:

Do not ignore this error. How big is your cramfs iage? How  much  RAM
do you have?

...

Is there any chance that you built your cramfs image on a x08 (or any
other little-endian) system and forgot  to  give  the  "-r"  (reverse
endian-ness of filesystem) option to mkcramfs??
