I don't know how to extract the vmlinux from the -pa13 netinst.iso.
But I could grab the 2.4.22 kernel+modules which are installed.
It boots fine on my c3k via gfx console (using PCI Viz-EG card).
(uname -a give "2.4.22-32 #1" and Oct 22, 2003 time stamp)

Thibaut, the kernel used to boot the netinst.iso is the identical
one that gets install by the netinst.iso?

Damian, perhaps you have additional/different PCI cards that are
causing problems?

Can you send output from "in io"?
Type "in io" while at the "Main Menu: Enter command" firmware prompt.
