Gave the 2.2.7 images a try on a netfinity 5500 m10 (same one I've been using).
I haven't been able to get an install working with dhcp. It either hangs after downloading the drivers image from the network, or if I load the os by floppy, it hangs after downloading the base system. Manually giving the box an ip address avoid these problems. Checking the debug log (alt-f3), the last messages are from pump. Nothing from the install program is shown after pump runs. I can do a bit more testing early this weekend. Otherwise, I'm out of town for next week.
