Ivan,

Thanks for your help. Think I have worked out the problem. Appeared to 
have too large a rootfs so that the initramfs being built was very 
large. Have worked round it for now by reducing the size of the rootfs 
(qtopia4 was copying some unneeded files).

Any idea what the size limit is for a rootfs used with initramfs?

Thanks,

Will.
