Glibc limits it to a least i486, it doesn't compile anymore for i386.

So I've put a new bootdisk online with most of the stuff recompiled for
486-linux target.

You can find the zipfile on http://bofh.be/unattended/linuxboot-20040829.zip
md5sum:  2623926ea7f2e81e9f063d043e148aca  linuxboot-20040829.zip

This zipfile contains besides the new iso also a new linuxaux directory which 
should replace the one on your server.

Hopefully this one works for you guys, let me know.
