Use John Dorsey's bootldr binary. It will boot Linux on the Assabet.
You will have to change the command to be appropriate for your
configuration. If you're trying to boot with a root ramdisk, you better not
tell it to mount root on MTD. You can change the arglist with the bootldr
command, e.g.:
set linuxargs "root=/dev/ram ramdisk_size=8192"
params save
the 'params save' command saves the parameter values to flash so they will
continue to be what you want.
