The error I posted from the logs is there whether I use the initrd or not. I did look for errors before, but not very well so I didn't notice it (sorry). I don't have any more time to waste working on this initramfs nonsense at the moment. I may return to it later if nothing else turns up, but I don't want to. I don't see why the kernel can't wait until userspace has been mounted before it tries to load the firmware.
