Still trying to netboot 6300

Sridhar,

anyway your comment about R5 got me experimenting and I found about the
tertiary_vmb.exe.

R5:0 does not work at all.

>From LANACP logs I can see that 6300 downloads NISCS_LOAD.EXE, but after that
it just freezes.

But by setting R5:100 and using the TERTIARY_VMB.EXE it works better; and
then TERTIARY_VMB loads NISCS_LOAD.EXE.
