similar to: [PATCH] kinit/do_mounts.c:name_to_dev_t()

A patch for a few more hiccups and trivialities in kinit.c: * The check_path() calls check for "/root" and "/old_root" - I believe that should be "/root" and "/root/old_root". * chdir("/") is recommended after pivot_root() * init_argv[0] isn't set properly to the basename pointed to by char *s - this fix also eliminates six lines of

kinit/nfsmount.c:mount_nfs_root() should use the bootpath specified by bootp/dhcp. If the "nfsroot" option is specified then it overrides the boot server bootpath and a message indicating the override is printed. --- klibc-0.194/kinit/nfsroot.c.orig 2005-01-05 04:13:47.043897880 -0700 +++ klibc-0.194/kinit/nfsroot.c 2005-01-05 04:13:09.316633296 -0700 @@ -66,34 +66,21 @@ const int

Looking at do_mounts.c, it does not seem to support the "major:minor" syntax exported in 'newer' sysfs (according to linux-2.6.15.6/init). The following is untested, but might work nicely... I will fully test this when I get home later today. PS, I also added some error output when it fails to parse the device number, just for kicks. As I said, I can't test this, so feel

Im trying to get 2.6.17-rc4-mm1 (which includes klibc) working on an nfs-root setup. Its not working, so I started adding printf()s (not printk()s !) 1st thing I notice is arg5 is empty, but arg 6 is real I could imagine this unexpected situation confusing kinit (will check..) Or is that empty arg intentional, so that it marks the beginning of pxelinux addons ? kinit:main: init-arg 0: /init

The previous API for setting resume offset didn't actually work in the kernel. It silently ignored this part of the string. A new API was introduced under /sys/power/resume_offset specifically for setting this value. https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/rafael/linux-pm.git/commit/?h=linux-next&id=648464076160ee7a4112d05eea13621790ab9d04 Signed-off-by: Mario Limonciello
