"ICL ErgoPro C4/66de P" and bug in netboot-0.9.0e

[Jan Blunck <J.Blunck@tu-harburg.de>]

I got two problems with this computer:
1. The flash ram of the ErgoPro includes a RPL/BOOTP modul. It is
   working really fine (it sends out a bootp request and receives the
   response of the bootp-server) but after configuring the ethernet
   interface and downloading the bootimage (a linux netboot image done
   with netboot-0.9e, a bootdisk image from win95 or linux) the loader
   prints: Bad boot image. I don�t know what to do now. Any hints? What
   can the bootimage look like?

2. I tried to boot the same XTerm with a netboot-0.9.0e makerom image.
   But the loader gives me following error message: 
   " File name: /usr/local/tftpboot/bootimage.i486 Blocksize: 512
   " Loader error 20
   After that I tried to boot it with a makerom image from the netboot-0.8.1
   release and there were no problems. I use the ICL EtherTeam16i packet driver
   available from the ICL Homepage.
   I mentioned that the cmdline give in makerom isn�t used: when I type %S or 0x%S
   the packet driver won�t start but when I type 0x62 it is.

BTW: The mknbi-mgl isn�t building on my system neither for the 0.9.0e
nor the 0.8.1 release of netboot, because of errors compiling y.tab.c
(in file mglparse.y). Is mgl broken at the moment?

Regards,
Jan
