Hi everyone,today I have found a booting problem on a soekris net5501 using LEAF version 5.2.5 for geode CPU (Bering-uClibc_5.2.5_geode_syslinux_serial115200.tar.gz). after the hardware POST, on serial console i can see (after tha i have enabled the VERBOSE=1 variable in leaf.cfg): SYSLINUX 6.03 EDD 2014-10-06 Copyright (C) 1994-2014 H. Peter Anvin et al SYSLINUX 6.03 2014-10-06 Copyright (C) 1994-2014 H. Peter Anvin et al okading /syslinux/linux... okading /initrd.lrp... okading /initmod.lrp... and nothing more... On the same machine, I can successfully boot leaf 5.2.3 for geode CPU. Some suggestion? are there some problem with this specific version? Have I do something wrong?
There is not really something I can think of. As it appears syslinux is loading initrd and initmod but then gets stuck. I am not using syslinux but there should be little difference. After loading initial ram disk it should execute init, which is just a shell script. The fact that setting VERBOSE in leaf.cfg changes something on your system makes me think that init is actually called but hangs somehow. I _believe_ init has not changed between 5.2.3 and 5.2.5, so I would first reset the VERBOSE setting as it cannot affect syslinux anyway. Then make very sure you have the correct initmod with your system.
cheers Erich
