I guess we could make DLDI-EXT2 avaliable for those who want it,
and also keep the regular DLDI build.

And make initramfs standard on all builds.

By the way, it would be nice if the DLDI-EXT2 build checked the ext2
filesystem upon boot. We need to port current e2fsprogs for this though,
the ones in the uClinux vendor branch won't check filesystems created
with current tools.

Checking the fat filesystems might also be a good idea.

I tried getting filesystem checks to work once, there were issues
with finding out the proper devices to check. There's an fsck tool
but that requires /etc/fstab, which we don't have and which is hard
to setup with romfs in the way...

Bruteforcing devices and filesystem types should work though. :)
