So it appears that in lines 60 and 61, the USB-stick's block device is getting edited out of the candidates. I'll look into what the shell that gets spawned in line 93 sees and report back. Thanks for pointing me at the code involved.
Well, sdh, sdh1, and sdh2 are clearly in /proc/partitions but /init isn't seeing them during the for loop at line 62. I tested with devicetimeout=30 and it still didn't see them. I also tested with root=/dev/sdh1 just to shake it up a little: the first time, the for loop found the CRUX media on /dev/sde (?!), but the second time it failed as before. I am able to successfully run "mount -vv -r /dev/sdh1 /.tmpfs/.media" in the recovery shell and get to the root prompt.
Sorry, but what's the final problem? Which root prompt do you mean, the one from the recovery shell? If so just exit the recovery shell and init should continue. Btw, do not dd the ISO to a partition, use the device instead, something like dd if=crux-3.1.iso of=/dev/sdh Greetings Juergen
