**snip** I've noticed a big problem on the latest boot disk --

The rdev.sh script looks for a /dev/ram to tell the kernel which
device to make the root device if you install your own kernel on the
boot disk.

But there is no /dev/ram; just a /dev/ram0. Change /dev/ram in the
rdev.sh script to /dev/ram0 and it'll work.
