Apply these rules: 1.) If you do provide an initrd= thing, the initrd is being looked for /linuxrc. 2.) If the root is the same as the ramdisk, then the initrd is _not_ run _implicitly_, and thus /sbin/init is executed, _instead of_ /linuxrc. > I missed some driver for VIA platform? Why it can work without initrd? Only VIA IDE chipset maybe, but you don't usually need that for just-initrd. You'd need that for the harddisks... > After the starting process, the /sbin/init is loaded: I found that in > a breakpoint of do_schedule. It keeps scheduling init and pdflush. > I am still finding the way to debug the init process... Make your own initrd and put a bash into it. Then start that, e.g. (for our linux live cd), initrd=initrd.sqfs root=/dev/ram0 init=/bin/bash Jan Engelhardt -- No TOFU for me, please. - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
