I think it's worth it to get that thing going. The 3000/500 is quite fast
considering the ev4 CPU.

Regarding netboot:  I'll send you instructions separately for how you can
get setnetbootinfo run on your behalf. :-) Also, I've seen SRM on the 3000
fail to netboot five or ten times in a row, but then mysteriously succeed.
YMMV.

Regarding a bootable CD...I'm about to do a new snapshot, and I'll make an
experimental CD image and put it up on the site with the rest of the bits.
