Wait a second, it's obviously wrong, huh?
Thanks for pointing this out. 0xa7825100 has a leading "1", so needs to

Can't boot initrd using "menu", but booting from command line works.
@ "testing" {
linux /linux/bzc1 root=/dev/ram
initrd /linux/ramc1.gz
}
the above can't boot. Error is ...

I have bison version 2.0.
Bison was bison-1.35, so updated to bison-2.1 and problem went away.
Thank you.
