Just so you know, this has been a problem on AS1200 as well.

But help is on the way! :-)

I was able to fix the problems yesterday, and successfully booted and
ran a UP kernel on both AS1200 and AS4100.

Now we have to figure out how best to package the new kernel: re-spin
the AC2 ISOs (hopefully not all), or come up with a "wrapper" style
install CD that, once booted, would use the normal AC2 ISOs for the
rest of the install.

So, be patient, grasshopper... ;-}
