So... I could modify my syslinux.cfg file as:
# serial 0 19200
# console 1
default runnix
timeout 5
prompt 1
display boot.msg
label runnix
kernel runnix
append initrd=runnix.img root=/dev/ram0 rw init=/runnix runimg=auto
console=ttyS0,19200n8 ide=nodma
label repair
kernel runnix
append initrd=runnix.img root=/dev/ram0 rw init=/runnix runimg=auto
console=ttyS0,19200n8 ide=nodma doshell
and that's all that I need?
I would have thought that the "kernel" or "append" arguments would need
more changing than that.
