Booting futro a230

Hi,

Im new to this list, but I looked through the history without finding the answer for this. I work at a school where we today use a thinlinc system by cendio systems, but now we want to break free and use an open system, so Im trying out skolelinux.

Everything seems promising, but I run into one or two problems. The worst of them is that we sit with around 30 Fujitsu-Siemens A230 thin clients that I cant get to boot...

When booting it gets the dhcp packet to pxe-boot. But after it tries to enable the network card and to download the os it just goes black screen on me. I have checked the /var/log/syslog to see if I can find the problem, but it seems ok down to the end where it just gets stuck...

I attach the log from the start of the thin client down to where it gets stuck and nothing more happens with the client. The screen is off (blanked out) and there are no more communication on the network card (no blinking).

Any one of you guys that have experience with these futro? Or can figure out what to do next to try to solve this problem?
According to hardwarelist on the net it is supposed to be a Realtek RTL8110 nic on these, but I have not confirmed it my self.

Log;
