I have done it in the following way: build/make/arch/linux-hppafimage: $(INITRD) palo -f /dev/null $(foreach NAME,$(KERNELNAME),-k $(DEST)/$(NAME)) -r $^ \ -s dest/netboot.lif -c " TERM=linux console=tty initrd=netboot-initrd.gz ramdisk_size=8192 root=/dev/rd/0 initrd=0/linuxrc devfs=mount,all rw" But I guess your solution is better, so please commit your changes. Bye Thorsten
