I thought it was you that mentioned it yesterday?

Not my area.  But I thought it was nothing to do with bobcat-config,
but rather a PROM update.  Oh wait, yeah, he wiped out the kernel
argument handling in the PROM with his PROM changes.  So you have to
add the root=/var/nfs and ip= stuff into the config file.  Do it for
the time being.  I'll get Max and Warrent to sync up their changes.
