Why this is happening with Bering-uClibc and not with 'regular' Bering, is unclear, unless the initial ramdisk images were formatted differently (it's possible to specify the number of inodes when running mkfs.minix).

Well, one mystery solved:


Bering-1.2 initrd
-----------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] testing]# fsck.minix -sf /dev/ram0
Forcing filesystem check on /dev/ram0.
1376 inodes
4096 blocks
Firstdatazone=47 (47)
Zonesize=1024
Maxsize=268966912
Filesystem state=1
namelen=30

Bering-uClibc initrd
--------------------
[EMAIL PROTECTED] testing]# fsck.minix -sf /dev/loop0
Forcing filesystem check on /dev/loop0.
512 inodes
1500 blocks
Firstdatazone=20 (20)
Zonesize=1024
Maxsize=268966912
Filesystem state=1
namelen=30

It looks like the 512 inodes in Bering-uClibc isn't enough for the new linuxrc, which populates /dev prior to creating the final tmpfs partition for root. Let me know how you'd like to work around this.
