No, i've been using this combination for several weeks now without
problem. And no, you can't and don't have to disable the on-board DSSI.
I had lot's of problems with the KFQSA itself, or so it seemed. In fact,
it was the CPU that was too old; i've got an KA640 with newer hardware
revision and never had a problem since.
But netbooting always worked. What exactly is your problem?
