First of all there's no line "CFLAGS+= -DPCIBIOS" to comment out in the etherboot-5.0.11 "Config" file - I assume it might be a typo in the howto and commented out the line "CFLAGS+= -DPCBIOS", but it won't work.
Yeah, it must be a typo.

Perhaps you don't have the -DCONFIG_TSC_CURRTICKS option in the Config.
Opposing to etherboot-5.0 there are no linuxbios options so I suppose they are not needed any more. The etherboot-5.2 package compiles fine (I'm doing a "make bin/via-rhine.elf").
Etherboot 5.2 has another Config file in arch/i386 directory. You have to edit this file too.
Now, who can help be getting linuxbios/etherboot to work at all, or - better: boot from local IDE?
You might want to look at FILO: http://te.to/~ts1/filo/ for booting from local filesystem on IDE disk.
