The config at
http://www.freewrt.org/~tg/f/config-3.10-2-m68k
has CONFIG_SCSI_MAC_ESP=m but the kernel modules are not in the initrd at 
http://www.freewrt.org/~tg/f/mirnitrd

Michael's initrd contains /sbin/init, which is the default so 
"root=/dev/ram" is sufficient for that particular initrd.

Whereas http://www.freewrt.org/~tg/f/mirnitrd has /init so I'd try 
"root=/dev/ram init=/init" with that initrd.

Right.
