Hi Michael,
I booted test7-pre5 via syslinux-1.44 with a minimal initrd.gz today. Can't do much with kernel and initrd on a floppy, but she mounted /dev/ram0 just fine. I do not have devfs compiled into this kernel.. nor any idea how to use it properly if I _did_ enable it ;-).
syslinux.cfg: label linux kernel bzimage append root=/dev/ram0 initrd=initrd.gz init=/bin/sash
