Hello again,
please don't forget to CC the mailing list on your replies.

Your second mail confuses me about your intentions. Do you want to
boot a PC from your sheevaplug, or do you want to netboot the
sheevaplug itself?

The later case requires a ARM version of gPXE, but I don't see a
problem with the former case.
Please provide more details about your intended setup(i.e.: Who's the
server, what's the client? What do you want to boot?, etc).

Thomas
