Hi, 

By reading Documentation/init.txt I realized I was missing the root=/dev/ram0.

That solved the problem.

In the original run script example, it is there in the cmdline.

I am quite sure I had tested before with that boot option.

The only difference is that I managed to reduce the image now down to 89M.

Nevertheless, I appreciate the help and apologize for any inconvenience. 

Regards,

           Roger

Initrd images are usually (if not always) cpio archives without gzip compression.

Hi,

I built a 89M image and I am using Tinycore 6.3 vmlinuz.

I get the following error on QEMU window:
sudo qemu-system-i386 -kernel vmlinuz -append "quiet" -initrd tc-dds.gz
Failed to execute /init (error -28)
Kernel panic - not syncing: No working init found.

On Genode with QEMU, using the seoul-wm-cli.run script adapted to the new kernel / initrd images everything works fine:
genode/build/nova_x86_32$ make run/seoul-wm-cli_tc

until I launch the VM:
> start seoul

The same error saw on QEMU alone appears in the cli_monitor->seoul VM window.

I will try to build the kernel.

Thanks.
