The lines below, in the buildext2.cmd file, got me a little farther:

mkdir /dev
cd /dev
mknod console c 5 1
cd /

Now, after 'Mounting /proc', I see :
test: yes: unknown operand

A bit later:

/linuxrc: 61: cat: not found

and I'm dropped into the ash console.

It seems busybox is not compiled to support cat, but I don't think I changed
anything here..so this is kind of strange that all of a sudden this stops
working...
