I had to add the FSIMAGE flags in my cfg/TL-WR842ND, which I had cribbed = from the TL-WR1043ND file. config file to make a ulzma image. Previously = it was uzip. That allowed the init to start up and I was able to get to = a login prompt. I also based my kernel config off the AP91, as I didn't find an AP99 = config file in sys/mips/conf. John Clark.
