The biggest bootimage I'm using here is (SuSE 8.2b3 Inst. Kernel+initrd): -r--r--r-- 1 nobody nogroup 6009856 Mar 6 10:07 bootimage-ziggy created with mknbi-linux V1.2, so this isn't really the problem. I'm also using ~4MB sized dos boot images (PQMagic, BIOS updates) without problems. Don't try this with floppies...
Etherboot is simply pure fun and saved my life a couple of times ;-)
Thanks, Eric!
