But this is only a problem if I do "make zImage.initrd" and not "make zImage". The
latter actually passes this point without error, it fails when it can't get the root
image from the network, when is expected since I am not planning to boot using that
method.

Anyway, I will give your suggestions a try, but my feeling is that they won't make
much difference. BTW, the hardware is not "new" and it works fine with another OS and
applications. I ported the UPM setup from the existing code so I'm pretty sure they
are ok.
