Charles is right. In uclibc (I am using 2.2.3) there seems to be extra stuff prepended to the kernel cmdline. Different than Bering 1.2.
Also, it seems that if I use the leaf.cfg format LRP="root,config,etc,local,libc207,modules,mawk, lpthread,ipsec,libcrpto,shorwall,dnscache, dhcpd,libssl,liblzo,libm,libpcap,openvpnz" One needs *all* the packages. At first I began LRP="libc207,modules..." but uclibc could not find root thru local, so I added them as above. Hope this helps other uclibc newbies. thanks all.

It's the actual kernel command line you have to worry about, not the line in syslinux.cfg. Check /proc/cmdline to see exactly what the kernel *THINKS* the command line is to verify if you are or are not running into the 256 character limit. IIRC, syslinux prepends some things to the command line it passes to the kernel. ...regardless, it sounds like proper use of leaf.cfg (rather than syslinux.cfg) is the solution to your problem. - -- Charles Steinkuehler [EMAIL PROTECTED] -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.0 (MingW32) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDja8MLywbqEHdNFwRApWyAKCPZstjRl28mlTdnzXwKGXLjw3VWACg/Pt5 dleieUAVJyhzUVBzodUyrqU= =6JmJ -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
