What kernel are you using? Addinitrd is not working with kernels newer
than 2.4.16 due to head.S changes (I submitted a patch to work around
this to the linux-mips list some time ago though).
For newer kernels use tip22, a tftpbootloader that properly embedds
kernel and initrd:
http://honk.physik.uni-konstanz.de/linux-mips/arcboot/tip22_0.3.3_mips.deb
Note that you also need a small kernel patch included in the package(and
in the newer(>= 2.4.18 debian mips kernel packages)). To make
bootfloppies aware of this change use the attached patch(and feel free
to commit to boot-floppies CVS if it works for you).
