Yes, that boots if I disable setup_initrd(). I am still puzzled about the
purpose of setup_initrd() - it effectively disables external initrd,
initrd built into the kernel via CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE works just fine
without it, and no other architecture has similar code. Can/should it be
removed ?
Thanks,
