I think this is because the device '/dev/console' does not exist. You can either configure the kernel to automatically mount /dev at boot time, or if you are using an initrd image, you can make the device in the /dev directory of your initrd image like this: mknod console c 5 1 After the pivot_root, the /linuxrc will mount the real /dev tree. Hope that helps. Peter __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
