David, earlier in the boot messages do you see the hdc1 partition
being found when the partition check happens?
You'll need to export the partition 'rw' eventually, but that's
not your current problem.
You might like to try exporting it as 'sda1' or something to see
if that helps. Not sure why it would, but I've heard folklore
along these lines.
Adding some more debugging to the linuxrc nash script might shed
some light on the problem.
Also, what happens if you skip the initrd and try booting
directly off the disk. I doubt there's anything in the initrd you
need.
