[wplug] debian on cobalt

[Kevin Matz]

I'm trying to install Debian on a Cobalt RaQ2.  I've been following
Martin Michlmayr's instructions with limited success.
[http://www.cyrius.com/debian/cobalt/install.html] 

DHCP and NFS are configured correctly(?) as witness by syslog:

dhcpd: BOOTREQUEST from 00:10:e0:00:e5:9c via eth1
dhcpd: BOOTREPLY for 10.0.0.3 to cobalt (00:10:e0:00:e5:9c) via eth1
mountd[21098]: NFS mount of /nfsroot attempted from 10.0.0.3
mountd[21098]: /nfsroot has been mounted by 10.0.0.3

However, "Net booting" _and_ "Starting up"  (ie. with or without
pressing left and right buttons) both bring me to the CoLo (version
1.22) menu that was on the RaQ2 when I acquired it.  

If I select NFS boot from here, dhcp: DISCOVER will fail 10 times.  I'm
using dhcp3-server (3.0.4-13) from Debian, so I don't think this

 thread has anything to do with it...


Has anybody else here had experience with this hardware?  General
net-boot experience that might point me down the right path?

Thanks in advance.
