Greetings to all !
<Warning long post>
I am having troubles getting efika to mount the root filesystem in anything else but the ata hardsisk.
First i tried using a 128MB usb2 flash stick (maxwell)
I tried both with the bplan kernel and also a kernel made with OpenEmbedded, also tried singe partion (kernel/filesystem) and 2 partitions the results are the same.
It looks like for some reason the usb storage takes too long to initialize the device and as a result kernel does not find the device.

I have been able to notice (when trying to nfs mount with the usb stick attached) the rootfs i saw after a couple of seconds that /dev/sda was initialized..

Then i tried to use tftp and nfs mount the kernel and rootfs
In this case i get the kernel from the tftp server, but the kernel is unable to locate the portmaper.

I am missing/doing something wrong ?
