I just downloaded today's CVS and built it in an attempt to get
etherboot going. I have not been able to get xromwell to etherboot in
either 2.40 (release) or 2.41-dev Feb 2. The former tries forever to
get an address via DHCP, which works fine everywhere but here. The
latter hangs while trying to display the first icon, or so it appears.
I'm not sure how to debug that.
Had to add -fno-stack-protector (IIRC) to the CFLAGS for etherboot to
get it to build at all.
Built on Ubuntu Gutsy...
Does anyone have a working etherbooting xromwell xbe? Does such a
thing exist? I haven't really heard of anyone with an unmodified
cromwell successfully etherbooting anything, but I've seen lots of
complaints about it not working... Do I just need to build it with an
antique GCC or something?
