I use netboot

1-> Compied with ./configure --enable-bootrom
2-> make dep; make clean
3-> make bootrom ----> image.flo and image.rom
4-> with dd command I make the bootfloppy:
    dd if=3Dimage.flo of=3D/dev/fd0
5-> boot from floppy -> The server is ok. The server
                        send the IP number and the vmlinuz kernel file
                        but the secuence of boot is stopped with the
                        next message:  ERROR invalid header !!


Could you help me?
