Kernel panic if boot=live

[Denny Schierz]

hi,

I was able to create a own initrd and kernel, but if i put "boot=live" into the CMD line:

[...]

it seems, that I have something missed ...

NFSroot option etc. are compiled into the kernel.

Without "boot=live" i get the busybox and I can mount the NFS rootfs to something like /mnt ...

any suggestions?
