The boot loader command,
partition define ramdisk 0x200000 0x600000 0
is correct. The change is to paq.c.
The boot loader uses start+size while Plan 9 uses
[start,end) to define partitions.
The instructions on the wiki describe a 6 MB ramdisk starting
2 MB into the flash.
To the boot loader that is 0x200000+0x600000 but to Plan 9
it is [0x200000,0x800000).
The problem is paq.c defines a [0x200000,0x600000) ramdisk
which is only 4 MB in size.
Comparing the values in paq.c with those on the wiki should make
things clear.
