MBX 2.2pre6

Hello,

I am trying to get my MBX selfhosted on the IDE interface.  I realize it
will be slower but there will be more drive space available there than my
linux server.  Don't Ask... :)

Anyway, I downloaded 2.2pre6 and I have the 40 meg tarball root that was
posted a while ago.
below is a copy of the boot sequence.  Biggest question is why does the the
new kernel take my nfs boot parameters?  It used to.


BTW my linux server is not running bootp or ARP.  (or perhaps I don't have
it setup correctly.)  It has minimal hard drive space.

The setup is as follows:
MBX 821 40Mhz
1/4 VGA Optrex passive display (untested interface)
2.5GB Toshiba drive
64MB RAM

Dump follows:

Linux/PPC load: console=tty0 console=ttyS0,9600n8 root=/dev/nfs
nfsaddrs=170.102
.107.40:170.102.107.25 nfsroot=170.102.107.25:/home/mbx
