Re: ram disk trouble




yes i am using a ramdisk without any problem without useing /linuxrc
my root filesystem like it
ls -l
/bin 
/dev
/etc 
/var 
/lib 
/root 
/sbin 
/usr
rwxrwxrwx  linuxrc
i use -a options like this
mknbi-linux -a "root=/dev/ram"  -d ram -i rom -r ramimage.gz -k bzimage -o dootimage
but nothing happened
i used initrd like 
mknbi-linux -a "root=/dev/ram initrd=ramimage.gz initrd_archive=ext2"  -d ram -i rom -r ramimage.gz -k bzimage -o dootimage but nothing happened
how can i do ?
