PAY_LOAD_SIZE is not a maximum size.  its the blocksize option thats
used in the 'dd' statemnet that copies the payload into a file.  So
64k is the minimum it will be but it could be 128k, 192k, 256k, etc.

Make your ROM_SIZE be the size you want the image - payload size.  You
can see all the magic for this in the makefile that the config tool
generates.  I remember I had to tweak with my numbers till I got to to
come out the right size.

356k seems a little large for just linubios and etherboot.  How big is
your payload?
