Linux 2.4.26 boot over network

[Barbier, Renaud (GE Infrastructure)]

thanks. 
That was it. Too much dirt in my eyes today.
My U-boot script that builds the bootargs was wrong.

In the first one you had ip=bootp, this uses bootp to get the ip
address.  In the second one you do not have an ip define so the ethernet
is not being enabled.  You need something like this
ip=192.168.49.1:::255.255.255.0
