I must build libstand with NO_UDP_CKSUM. I don't think this is a problem that relates to IA-64, but is more likely caused by a broken bootp server. I'm using isc_dhcp for that. I'm not in a hurry to look into that ATM, 2. When you start/run the loader from an EFI filesystem, you cannot set currdev to net0 and do a netboot. The bootp fails, which may be an indication that we don't initialize the EFI SN protocol. If you abort a netboot after EFI has initialized the interface, and set the MAC address, it works normally. I already have an idea and hope to have it fixed in a couple of minutes/hours.
