Bummer. Thanks Lonnie. We will need to wait for the next release and hope we don't break it in the meantime! I haven’t checked but is the serial board type broken as well? If not then could I build it with this?

This would also fix issues where the serial console baud rate was not the default 115200 by using the setconsole-speed-tty command. Michael, the bad news for you, implementing the new initrd image would not be easy using the older AstLinux 1.3.10, barring building you own image. Someone could build a AstLinux 1.3.10 initrd.img with this fix (common across all board types), but packaging it would be somewhat tedious.

It looks like any changes to /etc/inittab via FUSE unionfs are setup after "/sbin/init" which is called via the initrd /linuxrc script. > > Let me do some testing and think about how to fix this.
