In almost all cases where we print an "error" number, it is an errno from /sys/sys/errno.h. We'd print it by the prober name for the error, but there is no room on the bootblocks for that table. Here's the error: #define ETIMEDOUT 60 /* Operation timed out */ Likely this means that you have not setup some service that the bootloader needs for filesystem access. Different bootloaders have different network file system requirements -- check diskless(8) for more information.
