I was using the kernel located at http://udpcast.linux.lu/20051223/linux,
I did not realize for the merge command, I needed the sources.
Using the merge, is it rebuilding the entire initrd from the sources, and
not really adding a file to an existing initrd?
With the sources, I'm able to complete the build with no errors while
building using kernel-udpcast-2.6.14.4-1.i586.rpm and the above mentioned
kernel linked.
Now the initrd went from 822172 to 3786015 (both bzipped) and when booting
to the image, I get "Warning: unable to open an initial console." I see
no other errors while scrolling through the displayed text.
Am I totally messing this up by using the pxe kernel? Should I be
modifying the /lib/modules/2.6.14.4udpcast sources?
I used the same command line as the previous message to build this.
Am I doing something horribly wrong?
Thanks for your help. It's a great app.
