Great work Christoph!  I wonder if this might help the problem I'm having 
with getting Etherboot .lzlilo images to load from LOADLIN under M$ 
Windows.

BTW, if anyone wants to make a few bucks, my company is willing to pay a 
few hundred US$ (or equivalent) for a solution and explanation of the 
LOADLIN problem.  Send me email if you're interested.

Regards,

Marty
