Depending on what version of redboot you are using you can load the=20
kernel from compact flash by doing

load -r -m disk -b 0x01600000 hda1:zImage
load -r -m disk -b 0x00800000 hda1:ramdisk.gz
exec -c "console=3DttyS0,115200 root=3D/dev/ram0 initrd=3D0x00800000,8M" =
0x01600000

You can change the root to /dev/hda1 if you have the cf-ide driver =
enabled

And if you are trying to do a nfs boot

exec -c "console=3DttyS0,115200 root=3D/dev/nfs =
nfsroot=3Dserveripaddress:/directory/ initrd=3D0x00800000,8M =
init=3D/linuxrc" 0x01600000

You need to make shure you have a linuxrc file in your ramdisk's root =
that loads the microcode and the ethernet drivers,
