Re: [solved] initrd -> gzipped ext2

I think we should really concentrate this info on a wiki. What do you think
about the idea? I've been scruggling too with the initrd.gz. And this could
avoid sacralux to search on this topic. Just a bunch of description linked
together?

What is toughts about this? Jay, how do you connect to the dell if you don't
use USBNET? Do you make yourself a serial?
