I am testing network boot using a vmlinux and initrd image on an IBM 7044-170. 
Thanks to Paul Nasrat for info on how to get it to work on pSeries. However, 
I have run into a problem. Yaboot does tftp requests and gets the yaboot.conf 
file fine. Then attempts to get the kernel. It only transfers 6291456 bytes 
of the kernel image and tries to execute it. (My kernel is 6352912 bytes). 
The 6291456 byte limit is consistant. Even when I try larger/different files. 
Anyone aware of where this limit is coming from?
