Today I tried:
bootstrap --apus -k linux -r root.bin root=/dev/ram nobats 60nsram
video=pm2fb:mode:640x480-60,font:SUN12x22,ypan video=amifb:vga video=map:0
debug
(Still no luck)

My system: A4000, CyberstormPPC @ 233Mhz + 040 @ 25Mhz with 64MB of RAM. IBM
IDE HD 12.6GB, graphics: AGA(running CyberGraphX 3), sound: Paula.
