I only used these 2 files from: http://d-i.debian.org/daily-images/armel/daily/iop32x/network-console/ss4000e/ Then loaded them with: load -v -r -b 0x01800000 -m ymodem ramdisk.gz load -v -r -b 0x01008000 -m ymodem zImage exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 rw root=/dev/ram mem=256M@0xa0000000" -r 0x01800000 This started the installer. After the installer I believe I had to make this a permanent boot script so again in redboot I did: fconfig boot_script_data fis load -b 0x01800000 ramdisk.gz fis load -b 0x01008000 zImage exec -c "console=ttyS0,115200 rw root=/dev/ram mem=256M@0xa0000000" -r 0x01800000 Yes, I have /dev/ram and it works. Important thing to note is that whenever you copy/paste these commands make sure the double quotes/apostrophes are correct ", not anything else. And note that sometimes the 'x' might not be x, but some character resembling x. So it's best to type them ** > I don't have a rammode file to install on the NAS.
