This is just a FYI so people know what is going on with LTSP5 for Fedora 
development.

For the last two days I have been trying to make coreboot/Etherboot work 
automatically in LTSP5 for Fedora 9 on Artec Group's ThinCan model 
DBE61C-R3.

mkelfimage seems broken with the very new 2.6.25 kernel in Fedora 9 
(seems unable to decompress the initrd).

mkelf-linux and mknbi-linux both fail during ELF/NBI download with a 
checksum error.

Tried hpa's new wraplinux tool.  It worked with qemu/Etherboot unlike 
the other three tools, but unfortunately it didn't help the 
coreboot/Etherboot case.
