Bummer, can't open /dev/tty1

Hi all

Thanks for hippo, I have successfully built the nios2 cross compile tool chain on Fedora core 4.

But I get some trouble in booting the kernel.

The following is the error message

    You are very close to success.

    Use the minimal inittab,

    cp ~/download/inittab ~/rootfs/etc

    cd ~/linux-2.6.x

    rm usr/initramfs_list

    make ..... zImage
