	Nope ... added:

	cp = cmd_line
	timer = 0

	which was missing (and was causing various problems), however
it freezes after 'Uncompressing kernel'.

	avail ram is less than where the image is relocated to ... found the
bug --- you need to use _end rather than __ramdisk_end as there is stuff after
the ramdisk.

	So with those changes, it boots OK for me.
