Stephen,
I don't have a kernel handy, but I can tell you that I have been able to boot
from a DOC2000 with a 2.4.19 kernel and the appropriate MTD options enabled
(compiled-in, not as modules). I used both GRUB and LILO -- Grub is my
personal perference, but using LILO is easier under Peewee.
In your first email, you mentioned that you used dformat or fdisk to install
a FAT12 partition on the DOC. If you are trying to boot from this partition,
do you have FAT support compiled into your kernel?
