1. You need to verify your Kernel is workable under Normal BIOS. 2. when you using mkelfimage, you need add parameters for Console port and baud rate.

After I upgrade binutils to 2.14, mkelfImage 2.5 work find and the new output is
Loading 172.27.4.23:vmlinuz.vo ...(ELF)... ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ............................................................................ ............................................................................ .......................................................................done
rhine disable
Firmware type: LinuxBIOS
but then I received nothing from serial.
Any hint?
Thanks!

Thanks, but
1. My Kernel is workable under Normal BIOS, it is even workable under Linux BIOS without Etherboot. 2. Yes, I have added them:
./mkelfImage --kernel=/mnt/root/bzImage-17 --output=vmlinuz.vo --command-line="c onsole=/dev/ttyS0,115200n8 root=/dev/hda2"

You may also want to try mkelfImage-1.6 (in the linuxbios tree). I've found it to work more often. I also experienced an error using the newest mkelfImage where it would load from linuxbios but not etherboot. But that was perhaps my binutils as well.

Hmm. I think that may have been a transient etherboot bug. I know I fixed a very peculiar bug that kept memtest86 from loading with etherboot.
As far as I can tell 2.5 is the most stable, although binutils likes to miscompile it. The nicest part with 2.5 is once you get it compiled it has not external dependencies except libc so it works in a lot more strange settings.
