This doesn't work for me. I get an errno 8 message when it tries to exec init,
followed by a panic. Here is how I setup my /sbin directory:
$ ls -al /sbin
total 202
drwxr-xr-x 2 root 512 Jun 22 07:26 .
drwxr-xr-x 12 root 1024 Jun 22 14:04 ..
-rwxr-xr-x 2 root 40960 Feb 16 1993 init
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root 151552 Jun 22 07:26 sh
$ file /sbin/*
/sbin/init: mipsel demand paged executable - version 3.0
/sbin/sh: mipsel demand paged executable - version 3.0
[ NOTE: I used "ln /etc/init /sbin/init" and "cp /usr/bin/sh5 /sbin/sh" to
populate the directory. ]
I am running Ultrix 4.4, which as I recall has a different compiler version,
though I thought the ECOFF file format remained compatible. My best guess at
the moment is that this isn't the case. I guess that this is where I will
start my debugging efforts...
