Hm. This is bad news for me, because that's the snapshot I was using, too.
I've just rebuilt from today's sources, and boot.net still gives me the
same problem:

    SPARCstation IPX, No Keyboard
    ROM Rev. 2.6, 16 MB memory installed, Serial #2106683.
    Ethernet address 8:0:20:b:af:1e, Host ID: 5720253b.


    Rebooting with command: net                                           
    Boot device: /sbus/le@0,c00000   File and args: 
    13200 
    Data Access Exception
    Type  help  for more information
    ok 

What PROM version are you using? I suppose it could be something obscurely
wrong with my hardware, but that seems a bit odd given that all the
self-tests pass in diagnostic mode and the non-ELF boot program works ok.

If anybody knowledgable wants to debug this, I can provide access to
the IPX in question and the Classic it's attached to that is the netboot
server and is providing serial console access.
