According to HP it's actually one nic with four ports. I cannot disable 
them individually.

Can you please send me the binaries as I still have no luck. Still I get 
random Exceptions or reboots shortly after displaying 'My IP is...'. 
However(!) I did see attempts at loading ldlinux.e64 and more in the logs.

What would be the easiest way to enable some tracing except for 
redefining Print, dprinf and ddprintf?  Just defining -DDEBUG_STDIO did 
not produce anything more than what I have now: "My IP" + crash.

I can capture console output through ipmiconsole, so the more verbose I 
can get it, the more information to grep through.
