Hi,

on ultra 1 the onboard ethernet is not supported.
But if you read the archives you will see that I was able to install and
boot an Ultra 1 by using a special crafted loader.

IIRC Marius Strobl has already figured out how to integrate this fix
(he provided the fix) into the main sources.

Basically one has to build a loader without gzip support and than is
working on plain Ultra 1.
