What with mounting root via NFS, hence having to set up IP et al, mounting various different partition types, avoiding the kludge of fsck etc., being able to recover from a corrupted root, you might as well just cpio up your /sbin and stick that in, and be able to run single user mode without a 'normal' root. <FX: ducks & runs> seriously point: ls /sbin gives a /maximum/ range I'd have thought. -- Alex Bligh - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/ | |||||||||
