Hi all,

I am new to buildroot, but the tool is so easy that I had compiled all things and I can:
* run the bootstrap that calls u-boot
* run u-boot that calls kernel.
* run kernel that stop because it does not have a rootfile system.

I configured the buildroot to generate initramfs, but instead to attach it to a kernel end it put the the initramfs file in /usr directory.

So I ask you, how to put the initramfs into kernel file end?

cheers

Do you set the initramfs source file into the kernel configuration (General Setup section) ? I think it's not done into the defconfig of this board.
