Ollie,
I think I've missed something or am doing something
wrong. I probably buried the following line in the
email making it easy to miss:

I'll do some more work today to see if I can get it
working with cramfs.
I used LEM's base file system tarball. The system
boots the kernel of course, then seems to hang. I need
to pull the error messages.
I will likely have little time to work on LinuxBIOS
today due to other engagements.
