tsdave,
I believe the .fs.gz file is a compressed file (much like a Disk Image (Mac) or .ZIP). I could be wrong, though...
ten, you are right, its a compressed file ... .gz. If uncompressed, the boot image what you get as a result. The file name or extension of it does not matter in this case as the boot loader simply does a binary load of the file and then does some offset and start executing from there.
A bit rusty here, but does the bootloader used above contain parameters for specifying the memory offset, video buffer etc?
