%SECTION0{name=UnableToOpenAnInitialConsole}% Unable to open an initial console

   Question:: The Linux kernel boots, but then hangs after printing: "Warning: unable to open an initial console".

   Answer:: Most probably you have one or missing entries in the ==/dev== directory in your root filesystem. If you are using the ELDK's root filesystem over NFS, you probably forgot to run the =ELDK_MAKEDEV= and =ELDK_FIXOWNER= scripts as described in %REF{type=Section,topic=ELDKMountingTargetComponentsViaNFS,name=MountingTargetViaNFS}%.
