And here is the some observations that i made; * Booting without an initramfs works, * Booting with converted initrd from failed initramfs's content works, * Booting with "Hello world" type initramfs described=20 in "Documentation/filesystems/ramfs-rootfs-initramfs.txt" works, But what is not working is busybox binaries inside the _initramfs_, modifiy= ing=20 our init shell script to use staticly linked bash with confirms that, bash= =20 script interpretted without a problem by staticaly linked bash until=20 busybox's mount binary called inside the initramfs. =46irst i thought somehow busybox is broken but copying initramfs's content= into=20 initrd works without a problem and also same binaries are working with 2.6.= 18=20 so i think its a regression in kernel but of course im not sure :), if you= =20 need more information please ask.
