thanks for the reply. 

That was what I assumed as well and I have a suitable nfs mount available. My 
problem was actually getting vmlinux.bin to boot at all.

I tried loading it to redboot but I found no information of start address, 
entry point etc. I had a couple of guesses that just locked up straight after 
the redboot exec command. 

I could find no information on TS site or in their "manual"  (or elsewhere) as 
to EXACTLY what to do with a kernel in that form.

So my question was quite literally how to boot vmlinux.bin 

thanks
