I also work on embedded system and everything works from RAM disk but
the idea is still the same.
The font directory has to be located (match the configuration),
it needs to have the right font files and the font.dir file if names do
not match.
Then it will work.
I use pcf.gz and ttf fonts and after solving similar problems, it works
now.

Hi,
I work on a embedded system so my fonts directory see a bit different.
I found a directory for fonts at "/lib/fonts"
and it did have "fontdir" with entries for 'fixed'
In fontdir file::
fixed 5x7.bdf BDF n 50 70
fixed 6x13.bdf BDF n 50 120
micro micro.bdf BDF n 50 40
helvetica helvB08.bdf BDF n 75 80
helvetica helvB10.bdf BDF n 75 100
helvetica helvB12.bdf BDF n 75 120 ....
but these are only for the bdf files. I think I can just change bdf file
to pcf to make it work.Anyway ,I hope this tip would
help me move in the right direction.
Regards,
Kishore
