netboot.lif seems to have a rather strange cmdline:
TERM=linux console=tty initrd=netboot-initrd.gz ramdisk_size=8192 root=/dev/rd/0 initrd=0/linuxrc devfs=mount,all rw
I couldn't find "initrd=0/linuxrc" anywhwere in the d-i source.
The crdom-image.img seems to have a more sane cmdline, but I still had
to use palo to edit it to add "root=/dev/ram devfs=mount,dall" before it
would get anywhere. I had to remove TERM=linux as well, because palo
locked up if I included all those params. palo has a history of locking
up when you edit the cmdline, unfortunately.
Anyway, after that, it booted and mounted the initrd, and then looped
complaining that it couldn't find various kernel modules, and reporting
'segmentation fault'.
This was on a B180, STI console.
