[coreboot] AMD SimNOW build question

All,

I am running into a problem with LAB on SimNOW.  It is booting into 
Linux but is getting a "linuxrc[1] trap divide error".

In troubleshooting so far I have been trying to understand the build 
process using buildrom for LAB.  I see where it creates the initramfs 
(as a cpio) during the build.  Is this supposed to be passed to the 
kernel as a cpio archive using the CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE define? 

In looking at the output from the console, it does not appear that the 
ramdisk is being setup by the kernel, so when it tries to init() this 
fails. 

Any help would be appreciated....

Marc
