Question installed RootFS in RedBoot iDirect x3 evolution Satellite Router/modem and loaded zImage


Hi Pals out there...! Please say some thing about this what's wrong...! have I done ?. Or was there issue with the sequence Logic like I installed RootFS.bin or Root file system first and the zImage in the last or it doesn't matter which thing should be loaded or installed first, well I used Http as source o RootFS and zImage instead of iSite TFTP to download the RootFS.bin & zImage it was manually extracted from linux_2.4_bsp-13.0.0.3.pkg (does the version matters ?). Please expert advice indeed leading me to success or if any one have access to iDirect TAC Please I Humbly request to send me every document that work for x3 or x5 iDirect evo or Infini Both! maybe I can find some useful knowledge from that, See my Email at the end.

Dear Experts! is there a problem with the Wrong zImage as according how to x3 recovery document it can be extract from NMS see below,

Quote:
1. Extracting the zImage from the NMS server
Perform the following steps on the NMS server:
Via a SSH session to the NMS server, extract the zImage from the cumulative update located on the NMS.

Code:
# cd /home/nms/cfg/image_sets/cumulative_update_package/
# cp cumulative_update]9_0_0_X.pkg /tmp/
# cd /tmp
# package ]mx ]a cumulative_update]9_0_0_X.pkg
# bunzip2 cumulative_update_package.tar.bz2
# tar ]xf cumulative_update_package.tar
.

I didn't extracted it as it's said in How to Document But I manually extracted Linux BSP.pkg using z7 software what it a wrong way ? I'm able to boot modem sometime it says kernel panic, but I noticed it's not loading complete ram as i observed in log that say 16M ram or take a Look at attachment, Also i tried the good Modem RootFS but both doesn't load ixp0 driver neither whole ram but 16M as shown in the attach .png.
