You need rpc.bootparamd for Linux. Get the Xkernel package from
sunsite.unc.edu in the pub/Linux/ directories.  system/Networking, I think.
Follow the instructions.  Rpc.bootparamd is often quite troublesome to
recompile.  I have an elf and an a.out version at home that I can send you
if you want.  Lance Tost ( i think ) used to have them on his web page.
