Anyone know if this combination works?

I'm trying to use Etherboot 4.6.1's ne.com, (vanilla compile from the ports
collection), to diskless boot a 4.2 Release kernel.

On the client, ne.com recognizes the kernel as FreeBSD/ELF and loads it from
the server. However, on switching to the kernel I immediately get the
following:

Fatal trap 12: page fault while in vm86 mode...
fault code = user read, page not present...
panic page fault

... and I'm hosed.

The kernel is compiled with the BOOTP options, (but it looks like its not
even loaded properly).

Any suggestions/alternatives would be appreciated.
Cheers.
