What's the problem? My custom initramfs definitely boots on my XO. Also the stock F9 one did too, but it landed a lot of errors during boot (which took several seconds to enumerate). > - Build a kernel exactly like Fedora 9 kernels, but with the mmc > drivers built statically.

When I did this IIRC boot would fail approximately 1 in 5 attempts with sdhci errors. Never got a chance to figure out why, but putting in the initramfs hid the problem nicely.
