    Hi ,

    I am Facing problem booting Kernel on IMX Litkit board.
    I download zImage and ( RFS ) ramdisk Image serially. when boot i get Kernel Panic saying
    /---------------------------------------------------------/
    FS: Mounted root (ext2 filesystem).
    Freeing init memory: 80K
    Failed to execute /linuxrc. Attempting defaults...
    Kernel panic - not syncing: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel.

    /----------------------------------------------------------------------/

    I am using following commands to download Kernel ad RFS.

    1> load -r -b 0x100000 -m xmodem zimage
    2> load -v -r -b 0x01000000 -m xmodem ramdisk.img.gz
    3> 3) exec -r 0x001000000 -s 0x00300000 -b 0x100000 -l 0x00200000 -c "init=/linuxrc console=ttymxc0,115200 root=/dev/ram"

    Please let me know why kernel panics after mounting RFS.
    Even after passing the "init=linuxrc" options at command line.
    Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Thanks in Advance,
    Aleem

    Have you tried to use other RFS? like ptxdist?
