Jorge,

I have a 735-125 and am able to net-boot it on a custom configured kernel as
long as I disable the ASP parallel ports. It works quite well using an NFS
root as I cannot get the SCSI hard drives to mkfs. I was going to try and
debug it but have yet to find the free time. I can e-mail you my working
.config for the kernel, or build kernels (tested on my own 735) for people
if they need them.
