i recently had to build an initrd too, and notice that as well... so i am not sure exactly what that means. I am glad you asked... however if you want to test an initrd, you can simply build *any* image and make sure to build the 'cpio' from IMAGE_FSTYPES. you can then use the generated cpio archive as an initrd. -- _______________________________________________ Openembedded-devel mailing list Openembedded-devel@lists.openembedded.org http://lists.openembedded.org/mailman/listinfo/openembedded-devel
