Hello,

It seems the rootfs cannot be seen from the sdcard. did you check if the rootfs is available already?

Furthermore, you might set your kernel configuration to have initrd ramdisk, and this gzip file is not available in your sdcard so that kernel will fail to boot.

Thanks

    Hello @FJumaah​ ,

    I have checked the sd card , the rootfs is available.

    The above error is encountered a few times , rest all other times OS boots successfully. But in successful boot also , a warning is displayed :

    [ 97.344015] random: crng init done

    [ 97.347420] random: 7 urandom warning(s) missed due to ratelimiting.

    Can you please suggest , how can i set kernel configuration to have initrd ramdisk ?

    Thanks.
