klibc can be build like:

        cd linux-2.6.*
        make headers_install INSTALL_HDR_PATH=/dev/shm/$$
        cd ..
        wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/linux/libs/klibc/Testing/klibc-1.4.29.tar.bz2
        tar xfj klibc-*.tar.bz2
        cd klibc-*
        ln -sfvbn /dev/shm/$$ linux
        make

Every other libc will do it as well, adjust the filelist as needed.
Try this as CONFIG_INITRAMFS_SOURCE= :

# A simple initramfs

nod /dev/console 0600 0 0 c 5 1
nod /dev/kmsg 0600 0 0 c 1 11
dir /sbin 0755 0 0
dir /lib 0755 0 0
dir /lib/firmware 0755 0 0

#optional:
file /init /home/olaf/kernel/init.sh 0755 0 0

Try this as hotplug.sh:

#!/sh
if test "$SEQNUM" -lt 42 ; then
echo "$1 SEQNUM=$SEQNUM ACTION=$ACTION DEVPATH=$DEVPATH" > /dev/kmsg
fi
if test "$SEQNUM" = 1 ; then
        mkdir /sys
        mkdir /proc
        mount -t sysfs sysfs /sys
        mount -t proc proc /proc
        set > /1.env
        echo "$*" > /1.arg
        cat /proc/cpuinfo > /cpuinfo
        cat /sys/power/state > /state
        umount /proc
        umount /sys
fi


Try this as init.sh:
#!/sh
/sh


I assume you can adjust hotplug.sh for your ipw needs.
