You're right of course, I've already booted a LEAF router in Arne's pre-made ide image. I didn't know about the initrd_ide.lrp so I followed one of the guides to add the ide modules. I used the original initrd.lrp, but manually added the ide-core.o ide-disk.o and ide-detect.o modules and updated the config. What I was talking about above was being able to produce a bootable ide image without having to depend upon a pre-built one. I'd much prefer to be able to do everything in Linux. As I indicated, everything I'm doing here must be capable of being duplicated for local configuration management.
