I do my tests with a B132L that does dhcp/tftp and it worked, in theory.
The image was to big for the bootrom. I am going to cut down the kernel
like you already sugested. 

Meanwhile I fixed boot only to notice that it doesn't support loading an
ELF image via dhcp/NFS. Seams I got spoilt by ofwboot.elf. ;-)

Anyway, below are patches to make boot compile again. (Feel free to
remove my comment about the pointer arithmetic. ;-) ) 

Main Menu: Enter command > boot lan
Interact with IPL (Y, N, Q)?> y
