>Description:
the next68k bootloader frequently times out while loading the
kernel over NFS. lossage seems very correlated w/ other traffic on the
segment: the load will usually succeed on an idle segment, but heavy use
will almost guarantee a timeout.
>How-To-Repeat:
boot a next68k box on a busy ethernet.
>Fix:
no idea, this is mostly a reminder for me to look at it later.
