About the etherboot I try to run with 5.2.6 version as you said (enable BTEXT) and It is not working. It stack in: Jumping to LinuxBIOS When I use the 5.2.5 version that you sent me before It work. Command: Make bin/r8169.zelf Now the elf image is loading and there is no respond from the VGA.. The kernel parameter is: console=tty0. Maybe I didn't patch the kernel with the correct patch file. Where can I get the patch of the kernel supporting ATI Ragexl? I am using 2.4.24 kernel version.
