Greetings,
Users of current netwinder 2.4 kernels must boot with option "noinitrd"
in the cmdappend NeTTRom firmware variable. Unfortunately, this
disables the loading of the initrd when netbooting from the rescue
image. Please mention the need to remove noinitrd when booting this system.
Thank you,

This got into the docs before the woody release, so this bug should have
been closed a long time ago.
Sorry it took so long,
