Sigh... FWIW, with your config neither the mainline nor the tree you'd
been testing manage to boot with .deb produced by squeeze make-kpkg.
Both in the same way - they get to busybox, mount(8) in there keeps
failing wiht -ENODEV all the time and the damn thing ends up in
busybox shell. Fsck knows what's going on - apparently the damn thing
also redirects all printks someplace invisible as soon as it gets to
userland, so the obvious ways to see what's going on do not work.
RTFS(busybox) time, I guess...
With reasonably sane config both trees work fine. I'll grab your image
and see what happens with it.
