It looks like the initrd is exceeding 4MB again, try adding
"ramdisk_size=8192" to the silo boot options.

It looks like this may have been figured out, but the fixes have not

not use cramfs or build it into the kernel.)
In other words, I expect the current images to fail on your system.

With Microsoft, failure is not an option. It is a standard feature.
