Not really. Just defining the variable works fine, eg " ro root=LABEL=OLPCRoot console=ttyS0,115200 console=tty0 fbcon=font:SUN12x22 rootwait selinux=0" to boot-file However, the keyboad/mouse/HAL problem remains. It must be an independent problem/missing kernel mapper because if I also have in an SDcard with the same label that has Ubuntu, with this olpc.fth goes all the way to the Ubuntu gdm screen and then again no keyboad/mouse input > > If it's just the initrd definition, perhaps there's > something wrong > with the initrd selection in soas04xo's > /boot/olpc.fth...can you try > commenting out the line: > > " root=mtd0" " \${DN}" expand$ sindex -1 > <> if > > with a backslash at the beginning, please? This just fails boot totally. Never gets to load initrd. OFW complains that there is a problem in line 40 (the last)
