Ah, yes :/

I found a simpler way to do it (but I'm not sure if it is 'clean' enough). 
I've attached an incremental patch against your first patch. This works with 
root=8:1 and root=/dev/sda1 for me.

Andrew, how does this look? I've also attached the new full patch so that you 
can also see the context.

Thanks,
Daniel
