Re: can pivot_root work?

Getting a 2.4 kernel to work is not too hard, if you can run
unpack.s and buildit.s.  Change bz2bzImage to bzImage in the
settings.s file and on line 111 of buildit.s I think, (which
should also be parameterized but isn't).  It has worked fine
for me when I've done it.  The kernel will need to have both
minix filesystem and ramdisk support (and of course also the
floppy disk support) compiled into it.  That is about all it
needs... Of course, replace the 1/bz2bzImage with 1/bzImage.
Of course, you could patch the 2.4 kernel for bzip2 loading,
but it probably isn't worth it.  -Tom
