Update to 5.0.1, which includes a boot sector to load
the ROM code from the hard disk, and an improved "tulip" driver. Also make boot over NFS the default method. This is seems to me more flexible in that NFS is often required for diskless configurations, and gives slightly better control than TFTPD on who is allowed to access the server.
