I guess I'm confused as to what the difference is between rootfs and
/dev/tssdcarda4.  If I look at what is mounted:

tcors02:~# df
Filesystem           1K-blocks      Used Available Use% Mounted on
rootfs                 1894904    674184   1220720  36% /
tmpfs                    31244         0     31244   0% /lib/init/rw
tmpfs                    10240        36     10204   1% /dev/shm
/dev/tssdcarda4           1507      1072       435  72% /initrd
none                     31244         0     31244   0% /initrd/dev
none                     31244         0     31244   0% /initrd/dev/shm
tmpfs                    10240        36     10204   1% /dev

it shows /dev/tssdcarda4 mounted at /initrd, but isn't the 4th partition
of the SD card for the TS lenny image the root file system?  If I try
adding an entry into fstab like:

/dev/tssdcarda4
