qyliss: looks like the kernel wanted to mount devtmpfs and found no /dev for mounting it?
<multi>
that seems like a reasonably face-value guess
<qyliss>
IdleBot_51f8eb57: oh nice though

<samueldr>
could it be related to the kernel having some kind of base fs as a cpio archive in it, where I presume an empty dev folder would exist?
<samueldr>
I've seen that in some kernel builds, a sint cpio archive with like almost nothing in there
<samueldr>
a tiny cpio archive*
<qyliss>
In this case it's a squashfs with only /nix
<qyliss>
So I think IdleBot_51f8eb57 is probably right :)
<qyliss>
Indeed he was
<samueldr>
>> Shortly after mounting rootfs during bootup, the kernel extracts a gzipped cpio archive into it.[2] Each 2.6 kernel image has one of these archives built into it, but by default it's empty
<samueldr>
right, is this a full boot or something else?
<qyliss>
It's a boot to an init that does echo hello world

To be honest, I did not do a pure guess, I searched and then made sense of the first result with an actual discussion
