[PATCH] Fix prep boot in linuxppc_2_4_devel

[Cort Dougan]

This fixes the prep boot code so it will actually create a good SMP boot
image.  The wrong variable was being used.

Urk.  Can we kill znetboot / znetboot.initrd instead please?

Or, for the potentially silent masses of you out there who do use this,
please speak up.  I'm not really aware of anyone other than Cort who
does use this target but am more than willing to stand corrected.

I find it convenient and use it quite often.

I found this target convenient and I use it on daily basis.

I understand that it's a little ugly and referencing some
external hardcoded paths like /tftpboot from makefile is not a
very Good Thing :).

So I would not complain *very* loud if znetboot is killed.

Just my 5 cents :)

Eugene.
