I'm probably in the wrong section but I've found a bug in the current TI-System that makes the nspire cx cas crash and reboot. Where should this be reported to?
(And sorry again for posting in the wrong section...)

To report ... to the community in order to hack the OS, right ?
You may want to create a new topic, by giving a lot more detail than your current post, suchas the exact OS version.
I do not get mad at people, I just want them to learn the way I learnt.

So I shouldn't create a new topic, right?
Then where should I report this bug to?

Scroll down to "How can I help" on this page.
I own: 83+ ; 84+SE ; 76.fr ; CX CAS ; Prizm ; 84+CSE
Sorry if I answer with something that seems unrelated, English is not my primary language and I might not have understood well. Sorry if I make English mistakes too.

Just PM ExtendeD, the developer of Ndless, or send him an email (his email address is in the "How Can I Help" section of the page Hayleia linked to)

Yeah, due to current circumstances, it would be best to report the bug to the Ndless team rather than TI first, in case it can be used to allow Ndless on newer OSes. That said, if it's a bug that can cause serious calc damage or hinder its useability, then I guess it would be better to report it to TI, though.

I sent ExtendeD a PM describing this bug :)
As I've used it many times before and couldn't notice anything being damaged or inoperative I don't think reporting it to TI is necessary.

No, the busybox initrd isn't intended to be used as a "normal" initrd, instead of mounting external storage and switching "/" it drops you into a shell.
It should be possible to "mount --bind" the /dev, /sys, /proc and /var/run trees and chroot, though.

Is there a place i could find/build a suitable initrd for xconfig?

You can't. X11 doesn't fit into RAM three times (compressed with xz & uncompressed in ext4 filesystem & loaded as executable).

But is there an initrd that will load Xconfig from a flash drive?
