Unable to open initial console

Ramgopal Kota
I am using mini2440 system with 128MB flash.
I built a target filesystem directory (say target_root_dir) and mounted it
via NFS it loads fine.
when I use the directoy to build JFFS2 image and load it into
NAND flash it will not boot.

I am getting 2 errors.
  a) Unable to open initial console
  b) Unable to find /linuxrc

JFFS2 image command :
mkfs.jffs2 –lqnp –e 16 –r target_root_dir –o rootfs_jffs2.img

How to debug this problem ?

Block Erase : (128K + 4K)Byte for your flash.  Try changing the 16 to 128.

16 is 16K erase block size for the flash in a 64M dev board.

Run a "cp -a /dev/console /dev/null /dev/zero <path/to/your/nfsroot>/dev"
Your kernel is missing the "/dev/console" device node. Or enable
CONFIG_DEVTMPFS in your kernel config (if you are using a recent kernel).
This will create the "/dev/console" for you.
