Smallest Initrd (ram disk)

[Prakash kanthi]

Hi,

I downloaded both the ramdisks. I would appreciate, if
you can tell me what should i have as the value for
"root=", in Kernel Command Line. Mine shows as
"Linux/PPC load: console=ttyS0,19200 console=tty1
ip=off root=/dev/part rw".

And also, if i select the baud rate 19200, do i have
to change anything in the linux code other than
initial configuration file (defconfig).

Thanks,
Prakash
