I just tried out my Amiga and it appears to be in better shape than

something else sufficient to test it.
I think the good old ELF ramdisk at
ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/unix/Linux/680x0/v2.0/filesys/filesys-ELF-2.0.x-1400K-2.gz
should be sufficient to give it a try...
Not that easy with just 8 Megs of Fast RAM. Besides, I couldn't gunzip
the file to look at the image, gzip gives a format error.
Now, I finally got to test it with a very simply self-made initrd. So
far I only did some read tests in a single thread (dd to /dev/null at
various offsets). It didn't crash or hang, but I noticed that the
floppy motor is never shut off (I'm not sure about the motor, at least
the floppy LED stays on). However, that is not a regression, I tested
the mainline code and it shows the same problem.
