bootldr 2.18.48 has a command for reading an individual file into DRAM, from which it can be copied to CF or sent via xmodem to the host. iirc, it is:
jffs2 read 0xc0000000 <filename>
save ram 0xc0000000 <len>
You can bypass most of the init process by setting init=/bin/sh or init=/bin/ash on the kernel command line via set linuxargs.
