Sorry for hijacking the thread -- but I had just a similar problem, which has its roots in live-initramfs as well: a system with two live images (one on USB stick, one on a flash-ide, seen by the system as /dev/hda). Telling the BIOS to boot from USB does boot kernel and initramfs from there *but* mounts the cramfs from "the other" disk. Lots of fun, I tell you ;-) The use case would be updating the "built-in" image. Now I guess there could be a way to circumvent that with some boot params (I don't know wheter this would be possible in the two-NIC case of Frédéric).
