With an rtl8139 and etherboot 5.1 from CVS, I get familair picture
[lots of dots]
mknbi-1.2-12/first32.c (ELF) (GPL)
Top of ramdisk is 0X04000000
Ramdisk at 0X03F43000, size 0X000BD000
[cursor]

and is frozen.

To me it looks like a mismatch between eb-5.1 and mknbi-1.2.

Are there successes reported with the new Etherboot and the old mknbi ?
