The PM7300 in question gets this far during a net boot process:

  0 > boot enet file: 192.168.1.20,owfboot.xcfloading XCOFF
  tsize=C1C0 dsize=1500 bsize=1608 entry=600000
  SECTIONS:
  .text       ...misc hex...
  .data       ...misc hex...
  .bss        ...misc hex...
  loading .text, done..
  loading .data, done..
  clearing .bssCLAIM failed
  0 >

Since I've never seen a *successful* net boot on an OF 1.05 machine, I
don't know whether it's even started to run owfboot at this point.  Does
this output give anyone a better idea where the problem is?
