I had to disable the "use vCPU execution model" to get that output. I added console=ttyLv0 and enabled support for it into the l4linux config, then with bash as init i could see "allow_cli: allow_cli: No such file or directory" in the log. So i removed it from the command line and now i get a working bash! After mounting /proc lspci works fine too.
When trying with the default init i never get the login prompt, it freezes after "No user config loaded!", so something is still wrong (this with drops-rd.rd).
The issue is that this ramdisk's inittab is not configured to show a prompt on ttyLv0, that's why no more output there. The login-prompt will only be on tty0 (e.g. the framebuffer).
If i load the other root image with an rc.local which executes "startx" i get the following error: xf86EnableIOPorts: failed to set IOPL for I/O (Operation not permitted). A previous mail in this list states that this is solved with that "allow_cli" parameter, but I need now some advice about where to put it, assuming that it is still a valid solution.
allow_cli is not valid anymore with any recent version. The easiest way to use X is to configure X for the fbdev driver so it uses the framebuffer.
