Still very close, but not there just yet.  :(

To recap.  I rebuilt the wpkg kernel, to turn on things like NFS and 
ramdisks.  I used a gcc-4.2.1 kernel constructed with crosstool-ng.

I used the ads initrd image, downloading it as a ramdisk.  
Installation-wise, there weren't any significant issues.

So I get the runtime installed fine, which naturally includes a bunch of 
network traffic to download the packages, etc.  But after a restart the 
system I get seemingly-random oopses that seem related to incoming 
network packets.  If I use the debian runtime, the OOPS happens every 
kernel boot.  If I use NFS root, no oopses.  Very strange...
