I have given that a shot, changing the processor to Pentium and MMX both do
the same thing after a Forced Kernel build, then deploying the images (Still
just reboots) this board is a Socket 7 that I'm using with the Host machine
right now so I don't see why it wouldn't work, the specs of the board are
bellow if  anyone can see any compliancy problems.

I appreciate the help, also I am using a ROM file from rom-o-matic.org,
since I did not know if there is anything specific I needed I just
downloaded the newest *.iso rom and that was it, maybe its the ROM?  I tried
to use one of the pre-existing *.lzdsk files, but it just goes "Searching
for DHCP" and keeps going, however the rom-o-matic rom at least downloads
the qplusp.etherboot file.

Thank You All;
Aron Reid

transfers the "qplusp.etherboot" file and then just stops at "Ok, booting
Kernel" and nothing more.  This happens on a Cyrix Media GX board
(http://www.lannerinc.com/products/ViewProduct.asp?view=55).  In the mailing
list I saw a few suggestions to use a pure x86 processor, so I tried a
Socket 7 P1-MMX at 233MHz
(http://www.lannerinc.com/products/ViewProduct.asp?view=86) and the unit
just reboots at the same stage.

there a way I can deploy this right to the HDD?  This is just for
prototyping so anything that makes it work is good :)  So does anyone know
of a way I can just move the files to the hard drive, maybe by CD or make a
bootable CD or something?
