Yes, it is up to date, just ftp-ed the latest current etc-src and installed
it, still the same symptoms.
I've added some extra diagnostic echo statements, and the boot hangs at the
point where / gets remounted to make it r/w. That happens way before the
network has been started.
Does this mean that current right now is broken for diskless use, or am
I doing something completely wrong here?

Regards, happy hacking, Paul.
