I can't use it to transfer files to linux scsi partitions via ethernet.  I 
need a larger kernel, which won't fit.

How do I install BL3 to its own HD partition on a computer with only a 
scsi drive, without first getting it going in ramdisk or loop version and 
using a scsi-capable kernel, with initrd.gz that can handle scsi too?

I have posted a scsi substitute for BL3.40 initrd.gz which I am about to 
test, just add my scsi kernel and change boot.bat to use both.
