Fantastic! I remember somebody saying initrd has to be called ramdisk.gz
but I missed it!

Put the same 3 commands you used to boot into boot_script_data so something
along:
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
Remember to press enter to finish entering mode and then say y to update
the memory.

Interesting! So this means all other memory blocks are not important for
booting.
Anybody, does this mean we should be able to free available MTD blocks to
being able to fit a larger kernel??
