Ok, it built clean, but broke on boot.
What does the full command line look like?

I presume you mean the kernel boot-line, since last post included the
'Running ipconfig'
Ive been banging at the kernel with permutations of the following
pxelinux stanza.
LABEL I 2.6.17-rc4-mm1-sk
MENU LABEL ^i. 2.6.17-rc4-mm1-sk

panic=5
I think the problem lies with picking up a decent 'rootpath', since that
part of the output is always empty, for all variations tried so far..
