You have all the PPC executables when you install the ELDK :-) Also you can download a ready-to-run image from our FTP server: see ftp://ftp.denx.de/pub/LinuxPPC/usr/src/SELF/images/ppc_82xx/
D'oh! That works! I've got it booting BusyBox. What threw me is I was searching all over the ELDK tree for anything that looked like "initrd." Once I knew what to look for, I also found another possible in the Metrowerks BSP tree. Didn't think to look for ramdisk. Next stop: IDE. It LOOKS like there is support for the internal IDE in the kernel config (MGT 5xxx?)...
I just want to thank you effusively for the vast amount of work you have saved me, especially considering that, as a programmer, I'm a total hack. I was wondering, can the other development trees under the ELDK install directory be safely deleted? I only need ppc_82xx-
