Jose kindly helped me try this exec line instead :
exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 rw root=/dev/ram mem=256M@0xa0000000" -r 0x01800000
The system boots fine. So 4x1TB disks work OK in the SS4000-E.

What is the recommended way to boot Debian on Arm without having to
interrupt RedBoot, paste the kernel command line and add -r 0x01800000 ?

Is using RedBoot's fconfig boot_script_data the (only) way ?
