My system is missing both /sbin/init and /dev/initctl.  Here is how I got there:

I downloaded 2G-mSD-7800.dd.bz2 from:

ftp.embeddedarm.com://ts-arm-sbc/ts-7800-linux/binaries/ts-images

I bunzipped the image on my desktop linux system and copied it to a microSD 
card using:

dd if=2G-mSD-7800.dd of=/dev/sdb

I enabled jumper 1 the TS-7800 board, installed the mSD card, booted, and then 
logged in via telnet.  The system reports itself as:

Linux ts7800 2.6.21-ts #1 PREEMPT Fri Oct 10 10:20:42 MST 2008 armv5tejl unknown

The system looks different than when it did when booting from the internal 
flash, so I'm pretty sure it is using the new mSD card.  When I tried to 
shutdown, it complained with:


/ # shutdown -h now
shutdown: /dev/initctl: No such file or directory
shutdown: cannot execute /sbin/init
shutdown: /dev/initctl: No such file or directory


Both files are missing.  What did I fail to do when setting up the new card?  
What do I need to do to get it right?

Thanks!
