Good pointers, but be aware that the net4526 has at most 256MB,
and possibly as little as 16MB, of flash storage. So it's fairly
likely you'll need to produced a cut-down image and copy it to
the flash storage via some other OS (possibly the installed
Pyramid linux, or possibly something else via pxeboot).
