[parisc-linux] Net boot image.

[parisc-linux] Net boot image.

[Jorge L. deLyra]

I saw on the list that someone had managed to boot using Image-20000803 so
I tried to net boot our 735-125 with it and it worked. I mean, the netboot
part, the kernel hangs at the same point as before: ASP. The ftp site is a
bit confusing, it is hard to know what is what in there. In any case, this
image is huge, almost 7 MB, it looks like the ISO image so far as "file"
shows. I got curious: why is it so large, more than 3 times the kernel?

Hi Jorge,

The ASP-parport-problem was fixed yesterday. You should try a newer kernel, 
or cross-compile yourself a new one.
