You could try the vmlinuz-2.4.22-install that is found at :
http://people.debian.org/~luther/pegasos/2.4.22.

It doesn't really is a chrp kernel, it was built for the pegasos, which
is of chrp/pop lineage. But it does include the rootdisk in an initrd.
It is not really the chrp initrd, but almost. The main difference is
that you have parted or amiga-fdisk in place of ddisk, so maybe it would
not work out for you, but if the rest of it works, i would be glad to
build you an initrd enabled kernel.

kernels+initrd are very nice to install debian. You only need one file,
you boot it, and then you can do a full network install with them, or
even install from the woody CD-ROMs.
