I don't get a prompt.
I use "Fedora 7 (2.6.21-1.3194.fc7)" in "/dev/hda1".
And the "/bin/sh" in it is GNU bash 3.2.9 (i686-redhat-linux-gnu).
The kernel command line values and their massage logs are the following:


#####################################################################

(1) task "vmlinuz26" "earlyprintk=yes console=ttyLv0 mem=256MB root=/dev/hda1"

What should I set to "init=" generally ?
Without it, is the default init run automatically ? (but it looks make
some errors in (1).)
And, do programs such as "/bin/sh" which runs on Fedora run also on L4Linux ?
