I am also using an MVME5100 it works so far except with the new 2.4.9 devel
tree I can  no longer build a zImage.initrd. make zImage.initrd completes and
is happy, but I never find the file in the tree anywahere. I have cheked pp3,
prep, common, simple and images. The most I can find is a vmlinux.gz Any
ideas on this?

Tom just moved things around recently to consolidate some bootloaders but
you should find a ./images/zImage.initrd.pplus according to simple/Makefile.
YMMV, I haven't tried it since before the changes.

and if that doesn't work out, you should be able to narrow the
search down by doing something like:

	$ find . -type f -newer vmlinux
