BCM57780 not working in linuxboot

Broadcom BCM57780 is unsupported by linuxboot, due to a bug in the Linux 
kernel (even as recent as 2.6.34)

There was a bug filed for this against RedHat [1].  As mentioned in the 
bug, the solution is a series of patches [2][3][4].  I built my own 
linuxboot iso (see the other thread, "linuxboot problems") with these 
patches, and all is well, now!

I'm testing this on a Dell Zino HD.  This solves the ethernet problem in 
the Linux boot disk, but now I have another problem with nt5x-install 
doing *nothing* after the first reboot.  Strange.
