Happier: as winter just said it panics when I try and boot from the miniroot:

sys_inst> boot

Does anyone have a 360 or 370 sucessfull booted form the miniroot ?
Serial console or with gfx/monitor ?
(mine is on serial console).

Hmm, I'd only seen an earlier version that used etherlib, I'll look into
this.

Easy, perhaps not, do-able, perhaps :)
