CoLo is a linux loader, so it is designed to load linux kernel and pass 
parameters to it. It has no problems with any elf file and can load file 
from multiple sources like tftp, nfs, hdd, etc. It is actually very 
nice. It also has a network shell and a serial shell and can browse 
ext2/3 filesystems. But that is not the point.

I am not trying to say netbsd kernel has a problem, what I am trying to 
say that the kernels I built have a problem and the GENERIC kernels do 
not load to the point of mounting root filesystem. I just want to 
investigate what is wrong as would like to keep ability to run my qube 
in the future.

Nether mine or the generic kernels load on qube over the network. They 
only load using netbsd bootloader provided with the netbsd kernel. This 
may prevent in the future from netbooting machine with the kernel older 
than 1.6.2. I want to find out what is wrong and how to fix it.

Current restore cd based on netbsd 1.6.1 and that already has some 
problems due to different user land of restore cd and the version that 
is being installed. I want to update restorecd to a more recent version.

I do not appear to have this file in 2.1 kernel source. It probably 
comes from -current.
