One of the errata fixed in 1.0-stable[1] is:
- /dev/nftla added to /var/lib/lrpkg/root.mount to fix a problem when
trying to boot from DoC
RC4 is probably missing /dev/nftla1 , which would definitely
cause problems. Can you upgrade to 1.0-stable and see if the
problem goes away?

Actually, that's not true. An example from /linuxrc :
echo "LINUXRC: Bering - Initrd - $VERSION"
[..]
[ "$VERBOSE" ] && echo "Loading modules..."
[..]
echo "Mounting a $SYSTSIZE TMPFS filesystem..."
After changing the values, did you backup initrd?
