I had that working at the time, but was stuck with another issue, which
was actually that the setup program nowadays is in C, with a BSS, which
was overflowing into pgadjust...  So I was able to build a loadlin.exe
that boots lenny's netboot/gtk.  The etch image however, still fails,
I'll see why.

However, blocking this bug by the "cannnot be built from source", I'll
work on that one again.
