aah ok, 
thanks very much Steve i will get into the irc and ask Kumba :)

even a netboot with broken networking would be ok for me :)
i just want to get all the stuff set up on my main pc - dhcp, tftp, 
etc etc to get the Octane booting up over the network.

if it boots up into a broken OS with no further networking thats
ok in the short term :)

As im sure Kumbas fixed images will be coming soon, or i will 
try cross-compiling the vanilla sources from linux for mips with 
the speedracer IP30 patches. 

cheerios, and bo!
John
