Hello,
I am trying to get a set of Soekris net4801s set up with Monowall v1.235. I have done this many times in the past with no problem, but this time all five of the net4801s I am trying to load will not boot. I am certain that the 1.235 image was successfully written to the CF cards, and I used an IMG file that I know I have successfully used before.
When I connect via serial to observe the boot process I get the following:

At that point, it just sits there.
Any thoughts? Maybe these are a new revision of the net4801 hardware that isn't compatible with Monowall?
