Hello all,

I am having a problem during boot concerning VFS (see the kernel output below). I have read several posts on this subject but I haven't been able to find the information that I need. (Note that I'm porting uClinux to a new architecture (The Cortus APS3 processor)).

Could someone point me to the appropriate docs or suggest how to proceed, please ?

Thanks in advance.
