linux would be the name of the image.  Is your image named Linux?


What is strange it that I can do the following:


v0.4 init=/bin/bash
v0.4 2


And it works


but 
flash init=/bin/bash
flash 2


Still gives me /sbin/init and run level 5

I believe the command should be append='linux 2'. At least I know I use the command 'Linux 1' to change runlevels at the lilo prompt on bootup.

Hello, 
I want init to use runleve 2 when lilo boots "flash" I've tried append='2' and I've tried 'init 2'.  I've even tried "init=/bin/bash"  No matter what,

My device keeps going into tun level 5.  Is there something I did wrong? 
Thanks, 
Chris
