General Q&A
- LEAF Bering-uClibc does not boot with the message
LINUXRC: Switch_root into newfs... can't run '/etc/init.d/rcS': No such file or directory Please press Enter to activate this console.
This will be the case, if you upgrade your CF/HD with LEAF Bering-uClibc packages, without updating Syslinux from (previous version) 3.x to syslinux 4.x. LEAF Bering-uClibc 5.x needs support for multiple initrd files (initrd and initmod), which is supported in Syslinux versions 4.0 and above.
