Android linuxrc failure

Im so close, but it keeps stopping. Below is the output from the serial
link. I dont know what I am missing...

Waiting 3sec before mounting root device...
kjournald starting.  Commit interval 5 seconds
EXT3 FS on mmcblk0p3, internal journal
EXT3-fs: recovery complete.
EXT3-fs: mounted filesystem with ordered data mode.
VFS: Mounted root (ext3 filesystem).
Freeing init memory: 116K
Warning: unable to open an initial console.

I followed the tutorial at mini2440.spaceopera.org/...  any ideas?

You really use EXT3? Isn't it is only best for mechanical harddrives? Also
I wonder why it says "recovery complete".

Did you copy your file system contents in to mounted ext3 partition as a
root?

you need to get an initial console:

on your root filing system you need to generate the following in  /dev

cd /dev
bash# mknod null c 1 3
bash# mknod tty1 c 4 1
bash# mknod tty2 c 4 2
bash# mknod tty3 c 4 3
bash# mknod tty4 c 4 4

There may be other errors that cannot print.
also you cannot reliably use EXT3 for flash.

once you get into the android boot scripts they will generate the other
needed nodes.


PLEASE people , if you are going to fool about , use a NFS to do your work
it will save you a shit load of time, in this case , you can remotely
generate the missing   'devs', then re-boot.
Also by using NFS you can check the file system is good on the remote
system.....

Saving time and effort as well as standing on a firm base is fundamental to
system development

I did as you said with the /dev adds, but still getting the same error as
before. 

As I am new to this, what/where do I get NFS? What is the command to
access?

You also said that EXT3 is not a good reliable, what should i have formated
the SD card to?

Did you get it running? I am having the same error but for other device.
