The above U-Boot seems to be a version that's installed in the MBR and then loads a second-stage program (from where, though?). It's not a flash rom replacement as far as I can tell -- at least I never did anything with the flash, and I think before I loaded this disk image, it was using lilo. I probably still have the original drive that was in it, with whatever that was booting from. Rich
