do we not allow booting a ramdisk?
Well, do we need a block device in ram to use initramfs?

I'm pretty sure we need this for old initrd style ramdisks so I'd
prefer we leave it enabled.
Dear Kumar, please, apply this one.
I have another patch regarding one regression regarding MTD &
PHYSMAP_COMPAT that I plan to send on top of this one.
Ok, can we look at just specifying such info in the linkstation
device
tree.
Thanks. The MTD & PHYMAP_COMPAT are the things that have been
bugging me
and my main reason to keep with the bleeding edge kernels is to get
things
whey they were (regarding mtd) as in kernel 2.6.28.
As I have no experience with MTD devices, I would appreciate a
reference to
their workings... All that I know is that all my /dev/mtd* devices
are gone
if I boot a 2.6.29* kernel.
Of course, I can do a git bisect process (since the MTD subsystem
doesn't
work as it did in the past even if I enable PHYMAP_COMPAT and put
the same
settings there, quite unfortunately).
ok.. I killed my kurobox long ago so can't be much help here.
