Charles....

FINALLY!  It works.  And it works great.  I think the latest and greates
SYSLINUX (version 1.66) did it for me.  Once I re-did the boot loader
with that, it worked.

For informational purposes ONLY, if you or any list member would like to
see what it took, I have made a ZIP of all files currently on my
embedded board.  Because of the licence thing about M-SYS (and the fact
that I used your sample kernal with DOC in it), this is not a
distribution.

The board was purchased from ARISE computers, is a PIII 433mhz with
DiskOnChip 2000 (80meg), 32meg RAM, Intel 82559 ethernet on board, and
DE-538 in the only on-board PCI slot.  Obviously this is over-kill for
the job at hand, but since it was made available to me........ :)

PS:  I like the WEBLET thing.  First time for me and it's a nice
feature.

I don't know...I have yet to play with syslinux and DOC in an embedded
environment.  I did get a ZF Linux eval board with a DOC, but when I
tried to run syslinux, I never got past the "not enough low memory"
problem (but syslinux *was* running).

I'm not sure how the other folks who have used DOC's boot their systems.
I suppose you could always fall back to booting dos, and using ldlinux.
I also think there are versions of lilo and grub that know how to boot
from a DOC...
