fails to boot a Soekris 4801 SBC. Info on the hardware here:
http://www.soekris.com/

The symptom is a serial console which has random characters streaming across 
the screen, regardless of baud rate selected. It should display the 
bootloader screen when set to 9600 baud.

The problem was defined and patched by [EMAIL PROTECTED]
A replacement pxelinux.0 file was made available on his web page here:
http://centerclick.org/net4801/pxelinux/

When replacing the pxelinux.0 file with this one, the bootloader and installer 
screen appears as normal.
