  Subject: [Peeweelinux] Can't successfully boot off CF


  Hi,
  I'm trying to create a CF based distro based on the latest pwl. I am able
to create a "minimal" project and have it boot fine. Now I'm trying to add
more functions like telnet, and various utilities which I add to minimal. I
am using the "full" kernel. Just cannot seem to get past or understand this
when booting:

  INIT: version 2,78 booting
  INIT: cannot execute "/rc.init"
  INIT: entering runlevel: 3
  INIT cannot execute "/etc/rcS"
  INIT: Id "1" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

  INIT: Id "2" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

  INIT: Id "3" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

  INIT: Id "4" respawning too fast: disabled for 5 minutes

  INIT: no more processes left in this runlevel



  I am using an uncompressed root with a single ramdisk. If I mount the CF
and look at it, rc.init and rcS are both there and appear normal. I'm about
to start removing packages one by one until it works, but I'm stumped!



  Any thoughts?

  Bob
