Last four hours I tried to do just that with help of FreeMiNT since no linux is running on my machine ATM. Since I couldn't find a 'dd' that would do what I needed I decided to initialize a spare partition as minixfs and unpack the ramdisk there (yes I tried ext2fs first but it didn't work at all for some reason). Now when I try to boot Woody's 2.2.25 self compiled kernel (the Sarge's still does not want to start booting) I end up with: Partition check: request_module[block-major-3]: Root fs not mounted VFS: Cannot open root device 03:05 Kernel panic: Unable to mount root fs Not sure if this due to the minix instead of ext2fs or if the ramdisk simply must be in /dev/ram since the stock kernel has no useful drivers compiled in.
