[Voyage-linux] Different PXE Server

OK... was ablr to copy the files to my PXE Server and it boots for the most
part. When I use my existing boot PXE files, It decompresses linux and
attempts to boot the kernel and then just sits there.

When I use the .o file above, I get a message about not being a com32 file
and then a boot: prompt.

Any other suggestions?


Thanks,
John
