Comments/Problems:
Initial boot fails due to a SEGV in frontend; this appears to be because
of a bug in glibc, triggered by libm being reduced to what is effectively
an empty library. Bug #228375 filed. I hacked mklibs to include a symbol
from libm, so I could build a working image. text frontend worked ok.
Kernel hung on reboot when discover tried to load de4x5.o; the kernel
has the tulip driver compiled in to handle the network i/f. I renamed
the module and tried again. This time it rebooted ok, and base-config
ran ok.
