it will, but requires quite a bit of hacking.
The midori team is supposed to release patches for packages
soon which will fix this.

If you dont want to wait. untar/gzip the cramfs* mlinit*
and pack* .mlz packages, rgrep -r "hda" *
and replace all /dev/hda hard refenreces to the HD your
using. that should fix your boot problems

else u can get modified packages on
www.chabotc.com/midori/packages these fix 'most' of those
boot problems

Here is my Setup for Midori Linux:

My Compact Flash is /dev/hdc

I've changed all the references of /dev/hda to /dev/hdc on
cramfsboot and mlinit.

i make a clean image.

write the image to the compact flash.
'make INSTALL_DEVICE=/dev/sda install'

everything is fine. Took out the compact flash and boot it
up on the IA system.

I am able to see the Midori Linux logo, but it just sits
there, with the cursor blinking looking pretty. No verbose
of any kind. Just sits there.

Any ideas???? Please help. I'm pulling all my hair out of
my head, and I am bald as it is.

Funny thing is that when I use a regular hard drive to
boot. Midori Linux works fine. DOH! DOH! DOH!

I'm doing the same thing (building for IA1) and made the
changes suggested. I also found that I had to create hdc*
in the dev directory. The kernel boots fine but tries to
mount root on /dev/hda1 no matter what.
