[01:17] <hyperair> hi. i'm getting a lot of these messages: [1384111.170887] init: Failed to spawn startpar-bridge (mountall-net--stopped) main process: unable to change root directory: No such file or directory
[01:17] <hyperair> is there any way i can stop this without having to reboot?
[05:07] <FoShizz_> anyone here?
[05:07] <FoShizz_> just lookin for some help.
[12:16] <Cheery> hi
[12:17] <Cheery> I'd like to understand linux systems better, and for this I'm trying to build a filesystem.
[12:18] <Cheery> it means I need to understand how linux boots up.
[12:19] <Cheery> well. grub2 handles the bootup into the linux. linux initializes itself then calls /sbin/init
[12:21] <Cheery> I'd like to try something like: bash+init+linux+grub today.
[12:21] <xnox> Cheery: calls init from initramfs ( https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Initramfs ) which mounts root filesystem and then exec /sbin/init from the new root fs.
[12:21] <Cheery> xnox: so I also need initframfs
[12:23] <xnox> Cheery: one can have busybox-static in the initramfs, thus your initramfs can already have shell. And the init in initramfs is no more than just a very long shell script. See the wiki page I linked to, on how to unpack ubuntu's initramfs.
[12:24] <xnox> Cheery: thus for a minimal testing you only need: grub + linux (kernel img + initramfs)
[12:24] <Cheery> nice
[12:26] <Cheery> I'll try figure out the rest on my own.
