That's difficult for me, given the fact that I don't know how your
kernel was modified and/or configured.

You might have to pass an address for the inital ramdisk as part of
the bootargs; I don't know how your kernel passes such parameters
between boot loader and kernel. And even then your kernel might
expect that the ramdisk image is in RAM, not in flash. As mentioned
before, patches have been posted here several times. Search the list
archive, please.
Best regards,
