Hello Hippo

Thanks for your help!

I disabled the sysfs support as you told me. I had both UARTs enabled in the Nios, but only the "normal" (not JTAG) in the kernel. After recomiling the Nios with only one UART, I got the "welcome screen" also when booting over NFS. But with the empty inittab, I've got still a kernel panic, with the "ttyS0:vt100:/bin/sh" line, it works.

Do you know if the initramfs does some further initialisation which I don't get when boot over NFS?

best regards
