| |
init/do_mounts.c changed in 2.5.48, and booting with devfs (and without initial ramdisk) has been impossible since then. I experimented with do_mounts undoing the early devfs mount. Devfs is mounted later anyway.
Feel free to test, but be warned that I am not an expert on this part of the kernel. This made 2.5.49 work for me though. I hope someone can comment on this. If it isn't "the right way" please tell what is.
