It seems only true for 2.6 kernels, isn't it? I did not find any menu entry in 2.4.28 for this, right?
Kernel image created with:
mkelf-linux --output=/srv/tftpboot/i586Linux "--append=earlyprintk=ttyS0,115200,keep console=ttyS0,115200n8" --rootdir=/srv/nfsexport/rootfs-i486 --rootmode=rw --ip=dhcp /home/jb/Projekte/linux-2.6.16/arch/i386/boot/bzImage

Sorry that's all. No more output after the word "done".
I also attach the kernel configuration file.
Maybe etherboot does a bad thing? I built this payload not by my own, I downloaded it from their website (as an "ELF (LinuxBIOS) ROM Image (.elf)"). I didn't touch any of the customising configurations.
