Hi,
    I am using a busybox for my ramdisk.
    According to the busybox manual, if there is no /etc/inittab file then
the default behaviour
of the busybox /sbin/init will execute /etc/init.d/rcS script as a first
step.
I have exactly the same configuration. I mean i dont have inittab file. But
when the
ramdisk is mounted, the rcS file doesnt seem to be executing. I have an echo
"hello"
as the first line in my rcS file. This print is not appeared on my console.

Any thoughts..

Thanks
Uday
