-----------------------+----------------------------------------------------
 OFW currently passes "root=LABEL=OLPCRoot rootfs=ext3" to the target
 kernel regardless of whether it's on disk: or /nandflash:, and this causes
 boot from NAND to fail.

 OFW should use "root=mtd0 rootfs=jffs2" for booting from NAND.
