I need a little more information. What drivers have you included in your
build.conf and what settings have you put in you
thinstation.conf.buildtime and thinstation.conf.network. (post the first
2 at least)

When you say switched off, does the machine power off, or do you just
have a blank screen? Do you get any text after the '.....' from the
download? You may have a corrupted initrd (it needs to be copied down to
your machine as a binary file - ascii will corrupt it).

We just need some more info.
