Hello.
Apparently, booting the system with init_chroot (boot loader variable) set
won't work correctly. The problem is devfs is mounted as /dev, not inside
the chroot()'ed directory, so the processes forked from chroot()'ed init
program can't see the device nodes and gets stuck. The following patch
makes vfs_mountroot_devfs() honor $init_chroot and mounts the devfs under
it instead of hard-coded /dev.
I'd like to push this to crater in a few days if no objection is raised.
Best Regards,
YONETANI Tomokazu.
