I'm currently working on porting the initrd_archive patch to 2.4.

I want to expand the work I've done to get a CD booting LRP system.  With
the kernel bootstrapping modules from the initial ramdisk (which I already
have working), LRP can boot off ANY device supported by linux by simply
re-creating root.lrp (a simple tgz archive)...no kernel re-compiles
required.

Flash arrays, hard drives, Compact flash cards, CD-Roms, Zip/LS-120 disks,
and other things should be easily supported.
