I guess it is because of no init.lnk in /bin but in /sbin

So I copy /sbin/init.lnk to /bin, but failed again,the same error occured.

Can you help me?

    Euhm

    I&#39;m pretty much clueless as it comes to the latest incarnations of Windows, but a x.lnk file seems to be a link to a certain file.

    From what I remember (>5 yrs ago), a *.lnk file is a txt file with in it the txt where the file is linking to.

    I doubt that would be recognised by a Unix based system.

    I found the reason.

    When I "make install", "busybox" copied to <project>/target, but it was rw only not excutable. So I "mv busybox busybox.exe" (chmod 777 in cygwin was useless during my test).

    Then "build fs" , upload, it worked.

    PS: my classmates&#39; work is "xrw" of "busybox" after "make install", so I don&#39;t know why things goes wrong in my way.

    Hi

    I have sthe same problem with the basic kernel and filesystem project. I just go through the quick start guide but get the same output you&#39;ve pasted. I don&#39;t find anything under the filesystem/target that I should make executable. Any idea on what can go wrong when I just want to get a login to uClinux ?
