 it's not "my" /init - i do not own it, i do not claim ownership of
that file, and even if i was the copyright holder i would still be
more comfortable using the words "the file named /init" or just
"/init".  sorry...

 anyway: i downloaded the armhf latest netboot initramdisk and
unpacked it using the commands under the section "unpack initrd" here:
http://rhombus-tech.net/allwinner_a10/debian_netboot/

 so the file named /init *should* be the exact same one used in debian.

 hm, ok so the latest armhf netboot initramdisk is not really the latest.  odd.

 sorry -  it's the default for "reply-to-all".  actually it's the
lists being cc'd, not you!  if i hit "reply" you get a personal reply
and the lists don't see anything.  odd because normally "reply" will
see lists [only]: gmail's good at respecting "X-Reply-To" headers.
debian lists are a bit odd, it's always been like that.   so, anyway,
let's swap the lists being cc'd with paul.... go to cc field...
ctrl-a, xtrl-x, go to "to" field, ctrl-a, ctrl-v.  there.  happy? :)
