What format is your initrd? It should be either a gzipped cpio archive
(initramfs) or an uncompressed filesystem image file.
See http://lxr.linux.no/source/Documentation/initrd.txt and
http://lxr.linux.no/source/Documentation/early-userspace/README.

You're telling it to load the initrd from floppy, which is obviously wrong.
qemu alre
hi
currently i'm using qemu in the following way to test our installer on x86:
1) build the kernel
2) build the initrd
3) build a mini iso with a grub that boots the kernel
it would be nice if i could avoid the 3rd step
what i've tried:
