When creating phase 1, you'll have to create separate images with -i.
It will spit out a kernel image and a ramdisk image.  Then load kernel
+ initrd with your boot loader of choice.  Make sure you remember use
"root=/dev/ram0" on the command line.

"bootfile /path/to/phase2"

in /etc/beowulf/config.
