New README for public ramdisks.

NB: If you have the initrd.img from another installation of xm-test,
you can copy it into the ramdisk directory to eliminate the need to
rebuild it. If you do this, there is no need to run 'make' again.
-Simply copy the initrd-X.Y.img file into ramdisk/ and then run:
+Simply copy the initrd-X.Y-ARCH.img file into ramdisk/ and then run:
# make existing
# INITRD="http://url.of.initrd.repo/" make existing
You do not need to include the name of the image itself in the url,
-however, an initrd with the right name (initrd.X.Y.img) and version
+however, an initrd with the right name (initrd.X.Y-ARCH.img) and version
number must exist at that location. The script will determine which
version of the initrd it needs and try to download the right file from
that location.

+XenSource xm-test 1.0 initrds
+=============================
+
+http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/initrd-1.0-i386.img and
+http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/initrd-1.0-powerpc.img are initrds
+suitable for use with Xen's xm-test regression testing suite. They has been
+built and provided by XenSource, for the convenience of Xen users. xm-test
+initrds may be mixed across minor xm-test versions, but not across major
+versions; this initrd is suitable for all 1.0.x versions of xm-test (as
+shipped with Xen 3.0.4 and the unstable tree leading up to that release).
+
+In order to use one of these initrds, run "./autogen; ./configure; make
+existing" inside the xm-test directory, and the appropriate initrd for your
+architecture will be downloaded automatically. Alternatively, if you have
+already downloaded that file, place it into the xm-test/ramdisk directory and
+run the same command. In either case, runtest.sh can then be used as normal.
+See xm-test/README for more details.
+
+These initrds were built using the infrastructure provided by xm-test. Each
+is a full guest operating system and filesystem, and as such includes a large
+number of pieces of software. The source code for the majority of these are
+included in full inside the file
+http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-buildroot.tar.bz2, where
+<INITRD> is either initrd-1.0-i386 or initrd-1.0-powerpc as appropriate, or
+alongside this file. Copyright statements and licences are contained therein.
+The remaining source code is included in the Xen distribution, at
+http://www.xensource.com/xen/downloads/archives.html. The configurations used
+for BusyBox, uClibc, and Buildroot are available as
+http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-busybox-config,
+http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-uClibc-config, and
+http://xm-test.xensource.com/ramdisks/<INITRD>-buildroot-config respectively,
+or alongside this file.
+
+XenSource and the Xen contributors are grateful to the authors of these
+software packages for their contributions to free and open-source software.
