It's just not my day ... :-( I hacked the e2fsprogs script to copy the non-static version, so I can get past that error. I built an ISO, and it won't boot. ... Freeing initrd memory: 2862k freed VFS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem). Freeing unused kernel memory: 112k freed Kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel. |

OK, I see there is another new update to scripts/e2fsprogs
I updated that script only, ran ./build.sh build opt=e2fsprogs

While you're changing linuxrc, I wonder if it'd be a good idea to recreate /etc/Devil-release & /etc/issue & /etc/issue.net _after_ /etc is untar'ed from media? Otherwise they are wrong after updating to a new CD and using an old floppy. - BS |

Still, that's very good. Most old PC's I've seen (that are still usable as a firewall) have either 32MB or 16MB, so 16MB would be a good goal. If we don't get there, 32MB is still great! > > What's the pro's & con's of using uclibc in initrd? > It is much smaller then glibc but doesn't have all functionality. > It should certainly be enough to get through the initrd. > > > Is anything stuck using it after boot? > > Should not. Sounds like it'd be worth a try. Doesn't initrd use all the utilities from busybox now? If so, does busybox support uclibc? - BS |

I don't know anything about uclibc. What's the pro's & con's of using uclibc in initrd? Is anything stuck using it after boot? - BS |

I have no USB devices attached (though the way things are going I am considering getting some flash devices to store devil-linux on the next time I am working). If it means anything, my USB controller shows up as "usb-uhci". (I know that there are 3 different types of usb controllers under Linux 2.4. [This gets reduced to a single common code in 2.6]) I also see in my syslog from around that time the message: usb.agent: ... no modules for USB product 0/0/0 Dean |
