We use parts of grub to understand ext2
It can load any file from any ext2 fs and boot it. (Ethernet, or ide at
present)

Does this means that your (current) romimage.bin can boot kernel from

You also have grub/netboot etc etc in your source. Do you used them all

If yes, what exact do you use them for ??
