[Steven Blakeslee]

Subject: RAMDISK problem

I am struggling with a problem where I dont seem to be
able to mount a boot filesystem from a RAMDISK. I am using
the sample RAMDisk root filesystem available from Denx's
ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/LinuxPPC/usr/src/SELF/images/ppc_82xx/

On the config file I have the following lines:
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM=y
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_RAM_SIZE=4096
CONFIG_BLK_DEV_INITRD=y
CONFIG_CRAMFS=y
CONFIG_RAMFS=y
CONFIG_PROC_FS=y
CONFIG_DEVPTS_FS=y
CONFIG_EXT2_FS=y

I've browsed through a lot of threads relating to problems mounting the
root filsystem from RAM but I failed to see a similar symptom to this,
with a response.

I would appreciate any suggestion from perhaps somebody that has gone
through this problem already.
