uwoody w/ 2.4.32 kernel boots into single user mode

[Harmon Seaver]

uwoody is at http://www.people.debian.org/~andersee/
It's not an iso image, it's a root_fs.bz2 and you loop mount it, add a
kernel, then dd it to a drive (or flash), chroot into it and do
resize2fs to fill the partition, then boot. There is also a
root_fs.tar that I'm going to try next -- mke2fs the partition first,
then untar the root_fs to it -- maybe that will work better.
   Or maybe it's my kernel -- I built the 2.4.32 kernel on my debian
box but wasn't sure that was the correct way to go. If not, where do
you get kernels if you don't compile them in buildroot?
