Hi Bruce,
Before I had IDE up and running I used a initrd to get things going. It
was a long time ago and it was a bit temperamental then so I imagine the
bit-rot hasnt helped.
Anyhow if you take a look at head-arm-ipod.S, at the end there is an
.incbin that I used to include the initrd into the binary. If you poke
around for for the CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM you should find some other parts
which need to be modified as well.
As for building an initrd I used the full uclinux distree and it builds
one ready to go...
cheers,
bern.
