The 5 only has 4M, I had seen the limit, but for some reason had 4M as minimum
in my head.

I hadn't seen this tool, but when I run it, it does show the correct version
name. I think I will try integrating into e32boot.

I have been trying both kernels, but hadn't netbsd+wmlcd with my modified
bootloader for a while. Just tried it now, but no such luck. 

I have tried serial a few times, but haven't been able to see anything. I
haven't been able to figure out what the baud rate for the serial port should
