etherboot and filo issue

Hello,
I think I figured out what the problem stated on the wiki is wrong  
with the etherboot payload. etherboot does not have filo in it's src  
directory. If you try ROM-o-matic and check off the box "CONFIG_FILO  
Enable FILO support. It will make main call pci_init." it gives you an  
": undefined reference to `pci_init'" error. This comes from filo  
correct? So I browsed the etherboot src directory and filo is not  
there??

Should I download both, and copy filo into the etherboot src directory  
and try to build it? If I try this, should I build filo first, or does  
etherboot build both?

Thanks - Joe

I like a plain Etherboot from rom-o-matic.net and then storing FILO
or whatever other payload on a boot server until I am ready to
reflash with the payload permanently.

If you want to combine etherboot and FILO in flash I think there are
some versions of etherboot which do include a version of FILO, but I
don't think it's the most recent versions.

Looks like version 5.2.6 is the last working version......

FILO is not kept in src/, it's in some deeper directory, util(s) comes
to mind. It was there last time I looked though.
