I tried that and I was unable to relocate just the initrd. Right now, I just
tested to see:
if  ((zImage_start >= 0xf0000000) || (zImage_start <= 0x00800000))

That seems to work for now, but I'll take a peek at the gemeni and see how
they do it.

Er, after re-reading, it's wrong too.  I'll send you a patch
privately, if you can test it.

This location checking logic is all a hack...I've already stared at this
a while to make it work for someone.  I recommend we _always_ relocate
both zImage and initrd (if present).

See the attached patch to misc-simple.c (this is versus 2.4.2ish, but
should apply cleanly) which gets the initrd relocated properly...it's
tested with bugboot.
