Gerardo,

You rock, you totally totally rock!!!!  I have been trying to figure out how 
to get it to do that as it's the most critical "next step" but now I am 
dying to see how you did it.  I think your right about the AMD NIC device 
driver, it seems to be the default.

I have managed to recompile it (x86 CPU, vmware professional vm etc.) a 
couple of times and the compile works fine although haven't tried a custom 
image (yet).

Regards,

Johnathon
