I have an embedded system with X windows.
Now I try to compress the whole filesystem and boot with this image as initrd.
I am using LILO, and my lilo.conf looks looks:
....
image = /embedded/boot/bzImage
ramdisk =10000
label = embedded
root = /dev/hda3
image = /embedded/boot/bzImage
ramdisk = 10000
label = embeddedRD
initrd = /embedded/rootfs.gz
root = /dev/ram0
....
"rootfs.gz" is /dev/hda3 but compressed. There is no linuxrc, so the only thing the
initrd does is decompress rootfs.gz into /dev/ram0 and then mount it as root.
Everything works fine, except X Windows. When I execute startx, I get these errors:
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
_X11TransSocketUNIXConnect: Can't connect: errno = 2
...
giving up.
xinit: No such file or directory (errno = 2): unable to connect to X server
xinit: No such process (errno = 3): Server error
I have compared the root filesystems resulting from booting "embedded" and
"embeddedRD" and I see no difference.
Any hint how to solve this??
Thank you.
