hello,
I know it doesn't deal with linuxbios, but I guess someone has met the
problem and know how to solve it.
When I boot with a initrd image and I redirect the console to tty2 ( or
even the serial port ttyS0 ) the system doesn't load anymore after the
launch of init. when I don't redirect ( all by default ), everything is
ok, and the system is usable.
the /linuxrc of the system is :
#!/bin/sh
# Set up ramfs filesystem as root and pivot into it.
echo "Setting up ramfs, please wait ..."
mount -t ramfs ramfs mnt
cp -a `ls -1 | grep -v mnt | grep -v proc | grep -v dev` mnt
cd mnt
mkdir initrd proc dev
pivot_root . initrd
mount -t proc proc proc
mount -t devfs devfs dev
# Close all open files on the initrd, and run busybox init.
rm -f linuxrc # this program
ln -s /sbin/init linuxrc
exec chroot . /linuxrc <dev/console >dev/console 2>&1
echo "setting ramfs root ok"
It seems to block when the exec chroot is executed.
thanks
