I've seen the previous bugreport when last etherboot release come out. I've quite a long list of TODO items with the package, including switching to using qemu-utils (also released recently) and seabios packages instead of providing our local copies, plus a few bugfixes here and there. I were hoping that next stable qemu-kvm will come out soon, having in mind amount of quite bad bugs fixed since 0.12.4. And if that release were true, I wanted to produce backport for lenny too, where all the newly introduced dependencies are not available. But apparently my hopes were just that - hopes, nothing more... :( I plan to do some real work on the package again, now without thinking about backporting it to lenny (so it's ok to depend on new packages). But this will not be in next 2 weeks at least, since I plan to take a vacation, -- I'm quite tired.
