hello, 

I follow the steps you give us to transplant uclinux for DE2 and succeceed,however,when I added the network driver,the following problem 

appears: 

uClinux/Nios II

setup_arch: No persistant network settings signature at 008F0000 

Built 1 zonelists 

Kernel command line: 

PID hash table entries: 64 (order: 6, 1024 bytes) 

Dentry cache hash table entries: 2048 (order: 1, 8192 bytes) 

Inode-cache hash table entries: 1024 (order: 0, 4096 bytes) 

Memory available: 6512k/8192k RAM, 0k/0k ROM (1230k kernel code, 353k data) 

Mount-cache hash table entries: 512 

NET: Registered protocol family 16 

io scheduler noop registered 

io scheduler deadline registered (default) 

Serial: JTAG UART driver $Revision: 1.4 $ 

ttyJ0 at MMIO 0x81004000 (irq = 1) is a jtag_uart 

RAMDISK driver initialized: 16 RAM disks of 4096K size 1024 blocksize

VFS: Cannot open root device "<NULL>" or unknown-block(0,0) 

Please append a correct "root=" boot option 

Kernel panic - not syncing: VFS: Unable to mount root fs on unknown-block(0,0) 

 

what&#39;s the reason and can you show me the solution?
