Ah, well there you have it. If things do not work out once you apply
the official Debian kernel patch, you may want to escalate this issue
to another (development) mailing list. Either that, or engage in some
Happy Fun Kernel Debugging. Block decompression in cramfs has
historically had issues in the 2.4 kernel, especially for larger
cramfs images, but I would be surprised if this has not been resolved
in 2.4.22...
