Hi David, If you mean has anyone managed to boot a Via EPIA using etherboot as the payload, and loading the kernel via (no pun) tftp, then yes.... but then I wrote it all down in the EPIA howto :-)
oops, hit the wrong key there...
what seems to be the problem that you're having ? your epia.config, the zkernel_start address looks odd. My configs have this option commented out or set to 0xfffc000
what version of etherboot are you using ?

I see a lot of people here have gotten LinuxBIOS working with the Via EPIA using an IDE device, but has anyone managed to get it working using etherboot to boot a kernel over a network? I'm a hopeless newbie and have been struggling with this for some time. I have links to logs, my payload, and my config below (Trying to keep the list archives tidy).
I had gotten etherboot working with the PCM-5823s earlier and compared the minicom log with that of my Epia. The only real obvious discrepency I see is the entry point. The Geode entered at 0x00094000 (606,208), while the Epia is trying to enter at 0x00020000 (131,072).
I'm using CVS versions of Etherboot and LinuxBios. However, I haven't been able to update in the past one or two weeks due to Sourceforge's problems so I might have missed an important patch.
