Comments/Problems:
The machine is an old Pentium 90 machine I use as a firewall; it seems
to be running Etch OK but Lenny is failing very early.
I'm netbooting it , it loads the pxe image and then I get a corrupt
greeting screen (very blue lines, repeated multiple times with gaps
in - looks like the whole image is maybe what should be one line of pixels
is say 8 deep with black between). Anyway, that turns out to be minor,
hitting the F keys get me the help text and I can load the kernel.
I see it load and decompress the kernel then I see:
Parsing ELF done
<another line of text here that disappears too quickly>
and then it reboots to the BIOS.
That's repeatable. I think the same behaviour happened when I tried to run the USB/hard drive
boot image off a partition on the hard disc, but I can't repeat that test now.
