ok.

btw: we should discuss this off-line. there are several things that, imho, need improvement.

passing the command line was one -- thanks for doing that. two other 'priority' features are

-- passing the board info structure to the kernel (from a bootloader).

-- passing the ramdisk address to the kernel (from a bootloader).

basically, use a strategy similar to powerpc embed_config ... or the flat device tree ...

i'd like to see the nios2_system.h file go away ;-)

I had tried to pass initial ramdisk address about one year ago. But I did not success, then I used initramfs. I shall look at it again. It should be easier to me now.
