rom-o-matic.net update

[Marty Connor <mdc@thinguin.org>]

I've updated http://rom-o-matic.net to have the latest development 
version of Etherboot, 4.7.16.

If you can, please try out this version and report results to the list of 
your choice.  This version has some major internal changes that will 
light the way to a brighter network booting future.

Please note that if you choose "Floppy Bootable ROM Image" as your output 
format, it already has "floppyload.bin" prepended to it, so you can just 
do:

    cat somerom.lzfdimg > /dev/fd0

(or you can use dd or rawrite (from dos)).

If you choose the "Binary ROM Image" you still need to do:

    cat floppyload.bin somerom.lzrom > /dev/fd0

If you're at LinuxWorld Expo New York (Jan 30 - Feb 2, 2001), please stop 
by the Etherboot Project booth (.org #6) and say hello.  Also, please 
attend Jim McQuillan's excellent talk on LTSP and the "Birds of a 
Feather" (BOF) session on thin clients.

P.S. The holidays were a big time for making ROMs. here is the count of 
ROMs generated over the last few weeks:
