Boot with kernel 3.8.11
« on: May 21, 2013, 12:57:57 AM »
Hello,

I was compiling the kernel 3.8.11 and made remastered core.gz. I inserted the parameter 'text' in syslinux.cfg.
After the line 'Microcode update driver v2.0 .... ' the system freeze.

You need to rebuild the initrd with the matching kernel modules.

I saw this tip. Modules correct /lib/modules/3.8.11-rt8-tinycore/kernel/

I can put the kernel and initrd.

An unofficial provisional blueprint for next Core kernel could be found here:

Running a diff between this and the config you linked to results in 4282 lines.


Not sure what help you are asking for without providing any details and without any specific question.
Also not sure why you would post this in TCB Q&A Forum.

Thanks for the link.
I compiled the kernel with the config, now the boot is stopped after the line 'loop:module loaded'.

I use tinyrt scripts for compile kernel and remaster initrd.

You can move the topic in the right section or merge with the theme of link.

I added the option 'nozswap' and system booting was successful. Thank you for your help.

Interesting...
Looks like the respective module got loaded right after the kernel printed the line about loop module.
