OK, colour me confused... :s
Everything looks in place. The kernel modules, the initrd, the kernel
command line. It just doesn't seem to actually happen :s
I'll fire up an old VM tonight to test this and see if I can reproduce.
I may have to come back to you if I cannot get it done.
It should be quite safe to run "convertfs /sysroot" after the first exit
(with rd.break=pre-pivot) but I *really* want to figure out why it's
just not working.
Just so I can pick the right VM, what's your disk layout? ext3/4? /usr
on a separate partition or not?
(/me is now wondering if the "rw" command line option is enough to mount
/ rw... perhaps that's what changed - even still you should have gotten
an error message about it after the first exit with rd.break...)
