Hello, 

I used a 2.4.21 to boot on lan and nfs root.

Recently, i got my box rebooting endless.

I have moved to 2.4.22 and i got that error : 

NET4: Unix domain sockets 1.0/SMP for Linux NET4.0.
Looking up port of RPC 100003/2 on 213.186.32.57
Looking up port of RPC 100005/1 on 213.186.32.57
VFS: Mounted root (nfs filesystem).
mount_devfs_fs(): unable to mount devfs, err: -2
Freeing unused kernel memory: 268k freed
Warning: unable to open an initial console.
Kernel panic: No init found.  Try passing init= option to kernel.
 

It's correctly mounting the nfsroot but if cannot mount the devfs .
The kernel got nfsroot , dhcp, devfs at boot .

I checked if there still was the /dev entry and it still was ...

Were can I found the meaning of "err: -2" ?

Do someone caught that error once ?

	Bert.
