(Not a kernel question - next time, ask on one of the Fedora lists at redhat.com)
Getting FC3 to run on on a romfs based system will be a challenge. In any case, romfs has approximately zero to do with your problem.
What you've almost certainly done is forgotten to do a proper 'mkinitrd' - FC3 and later need an initrd to get going in most cases. (Specifically, your initrd image needs to have a /dev/console entry in the /dev on the initrd filesystem, and you don't have one). [unhandled content-type:application/pgp-signature] | |
