Hi,

I am trying to bypas init on startup ...

I have tried the following in the loader:

   set init_path="/bin/sh"

and then

   boot -s

But it fails. Init exits or fails.

I have checked and /bin/sh is statically linked. Is it wrong to put quotes
around the above?

Can anyone suggest the correct way to do this?


Regards
