Ah, of course. I did try this already, but it was before I realised that PROLL was eating anything I passed to the kernel. I just modified my little hack to make it hard code: nfs=root ip=auto and now the IP-Config stuff is happening and it's showing the bootserver/rootserver right but for some strange reason it's getting the IP as 67.0.0.0. It should be 192.168.0.21 and the server config should be right as I can still boot 2.4.1 fine... I'll have a check around later, but if there is a reason for this happening, maybe you could let me know... Is 67.0.0.0 some sort of default? Thanks!
