MFG Tool - boot kernel error :VFS: Cannot open root device "(null)"

matt67 — Mon, 30 May 2016 16:11:18 GMT

Hello All,

I'm playing with MFG Tool in order to flash my custom board. I'm using kernel 4.1.15-1.1.0 with initramfs but the MFG kernel isn't starting because of a VFS: Cannot open root device "(null)" or unknown-block(0,0): error -6

It seems that the boot command uses the right address for the ramfsimage, execept that there is not "root=

.."

NB my uboot variant only add a special patch in order to support my custom board which embedds a PF3001 pmic. There is no other change, and the uboot is stable and working well in the regular boot process (not with MFG tool)
