I've got etherboot loading now.

I took a bzImage and turned it into a elfimage with

mkelfimage bzImage elfimage

using mkelfimage 2.5

then stuck that on my CF in the first partition ie 'cat elfimage > 
/dev/hde1' where hde is the pcmcia mount of my CF

Stick it in my target and boot.

I get:

< linux bios stuff snipped>

Etherboot 5.1.8 (GPL) Tagged ELF for [IDE]

And it just goes on and on checking different disks

Did I miss something?  Is Tagged ELF different from the elf image that I 
created with mkelfimage?
