Aside from this I made an empty ram disk simply to see if the kernel would mount it. My configuration is this: bootargs=mem=32M console=ttyS0,38400 Flash Address 10100000 contains linux kernel image Flash Address 10200000 contains compressed ram disk Unfortunately i ran into this error after executing bootm 10100000 10200000: Linux version 2.6.13-rc2-csb (patrick at gt-server) (gcc version 3.4.4) #1 Wed Aug 24 20:29:20 EST 2005 CPU: ARM920Tid(wb) [41129200] revision 0 (ARMv4T) Machine: Cogent CSB637 initrd (0x10200040 - 0x1020059c) extends beyond physical memory - disabling initrd which looks like the ram disk isn't being decompressed into ram from flash. Is there a simple solution to this problem? does the ram disk need to be maually decompressed first?
