TS boards starts by running the TS-Bootrom code which then loads Redboot.  
Redboot then "initializes" for want of a better word the file system and 
launches vmlinux.

So, question: Which part of the system knows about how to deal with EXT2 or 
YAFFS or JFFS?  What I'm getting at is I'd like to be able to set up an SD card 
with EXT3 on it.  I know Linux has to be built with EXT3 support. What else 
needs to know that it's an EXT3 file system?  Does the Redboot that comes with 
TS boards support it?  Does the bootrom code need to know about it? Of course, 
it that's the case I'm hosed until I can convince TS to do this for me.
