Well, I've red about it. Applied to 2.4 would better fit to my current 
needs ;-)

Which reminds me, that my problems, reported at tuesday, still persist.
Would you loose a sentence or two on my 2nd message, and shed some light
in this mystical side of contemporary netbooting from a user, who 
enjoy{s|ed} using dhcpd as a network bootmanager with eb 5.0 builtin 
menus [flashed on 3com, but the last revision :-] a lot :-)

I may ask Eric directly, if he {had found|can imagine} a way to get eb 
5.1 in such a device' flash.
