Alrighty, chucked your solution in there (from Ron's);
option USE_ELF_BOOT=1
payload ../rtl8139.ebi
mine is now;
#
# Config file for;
#
# Chipset: Acer M1541 and Acer M1543C (Aladdin 5)
# Board: Gigabyte GA-5AX
# Processor: AMD K6-II/300
# Flash: DoC Millennium (as root)
#
# This will make a target directory of ./ga-5ax
target ga-5ax
# ASUS CUA main board
mainboard asus/cua
# use DOC MIL
option USE_DOC_MIL
docipl mainboard/asus/cua/ipl.S
# Enable Serial Console for debugging
option SERIAL_CONSOLE=1
# Enable IRQ Routing table stuff
option HAVE_PIRQ_TABLE=1
# Enable MicroCode update and L2 Cache init for PII and PIII
option CONFIGURE_L2_CACHE
# Path to your kernel (vmlinux)
# linux /home/archive
# Kernel command line parameters
commandline root=/dev/hda5 console=ttyS0,9600 single
# ELF Boot Stuffs
option USE_ELF_BOOT=1
payload /home/archive/lb-kernel
So if I compile it all up, then I get;

... of which I'm not sure what I want. The howto say;
-rw------- 1 rminnich CIC-ACL 512 Dec 20 08:41 docipl
-rwx------ 1 rminnich CIC-ACL 33494 Dec 20 08:41 linuxbios.strip*
-rwx------ 1 rminnich CIC-ACL 756069 Dec 20 08:41 vmlinux.bin.gz*
So I;m guessing I want;
docipl
linuxbios.strip
payload.block (?)
Ok ... let me search the archives here, because I'm also not sure about the memtester;
[root@0n3 freebios]# find . -name *mem*
./src/arch/i386/lib/set_memory_size_noop.inc
./src/lib/memcmp.c
./src/lib/memcpy.c
./src/lib/memset.c
./src/northbridge/amd/amd76x/set_memory_size.inc
