You can get filo only under Etherboot.

make bin/filo.zelf

or

make bin/tg3--filo.zelf

Also I added something into the filo in Etherboot.

that's a plus and a minus for us. It's nice seeing FILO get pulled into
supported software like Etherboot. But we've had uneven luck building a
working etherboot here. And ETherboot still does far more than we want.

I would need to put the same kinds of mods into etherboot, and then build 
etherboot in a way in which all the ethernet support is not compiled in. 
In other words, I want to compile an etherboot down to FILO!

It is simpler to just use FILO directly.

but you won't get my speed improvements, although we can see about putting 
those in too.

we'll probably continue with filo-only here for now.
