Hi guys,
I tried to make two floppies - LILO boot and compressed root to be loaded to ramdisk. The kernel on boot disk is 2.3.28 and I get unending sequence of messages on the console after it attempts to load the ramdisk:
kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k binfmt-0000, errno=8 kmod: failed to exec /sbin/modprobe -s -k binfmt-0000, errno=12
errno=8 is ENOEXEC and 12 is ENOMEM, so I would guess 8 could be caused by me forgetting to compile ELF support and 12 by specifying the wrong ramdisk_size so I checked both and they are correct. On the LILO disk lilo.conf looks like this:
boot=/dev/fd0 install=/boot/boot.b map=/boot/map message=/etc/welcome.msg prompt backup=/dev/null
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.2.12 label=linux root=/dev/fd0 read-write
image=/boot/vmlinuz-2.3.28 label=2328 root=/dev/fd0 read-write
and on the root disk /etc/fstab looks like this:
/dev/ram0 / ext2 defaults /proc /proc proc defaults
btw, when I boot with 2.2.12 kernel it works fine, i.e. I get to the "login:" prompt from mingetty.
Any ideas what could cause this?
It looks like a bug in 2.3.28....
Regards, Tigran.
