I guess I did not have the modules on the linux partition yet...

You are right, I did not wait long enough. In 2.6.32 I see it in dmesg, same
error as before :-(
In addition the network module (and I thought it was built in...) did not
get loaded on boot. After insmoding it (modprobe did not work), the errors
came back. In addition sshd was blocking the kernel, so the system was
fairly unresponsive.

2.6.30 with TLS patch does not boot, I guess I did something wrong (do I
need to activate a kernel option?).

enough for today... but since Geert has found the problem, I hope a patch is
not far away :-)
