Re: Debian on the Ionics Stratus plug computer

I think I could narrow my current question down to simply, given I can do this
and get a usable kernel and a modules tarball (I hope):

...how do I make a corresponding initrd image so I can load the kernel via
u-boot manually without installing that .deb somewhere?

ps Actually I just tried installing it via a debootstrap chroot and a dpkg
--force-all -i ...  and I managed to get an initrd, but lsinitramfs tells me
it's got some x86_64 libraries included, which looks likely to fail to me.
  
   mkinitramfs -o initrd 3.2.64+ionicsstrat
   lsinitramfs initrd
