Subject: Mea culpa -- small fix for netboot fixes
In accordance with the unavoidable principle sof Murphy's Law, I discovered
that the fixes I recently contributed for the netboot code had some small
flaws in them. Two of them were just typos and had no effect on how the
program functioned. The other one was a missing line from the rootopts and
swapopts functions I created in bootmenu.c, which was supposed to initialize
the NFS sotype flag. It defaults to UDP, and you can change it to TCP with
the rootopts or swapopts commands, but then you can't change it back again.
I originally had a line at the top of each function to reinitialize this
flag, but somehow it got lost in the shuffle, probably because I don't
actually have a need for that flag yet.

Smack the netboot program around so that it will allow the user to
specify mount options. [So that you can boot from a privileged port]
Change the default boot image name in netboot to /kernel, then strip
the leading slash when actually going out to get the NFS file handle.
Added support for 3Com 3c503 cards. Also added another command to
the (trans) that allows you to switch the 3Com's on-board transceiver
on and off. (ether.c, ether.h, bootmenu.c)
Modified the Makefile to support new compile-time options for 3c503
cards:
-DINCLUDE_3COM Include support for 3c503
-D_3COM_BASE=0x300 Define 3c503 base i/o address (if not
specified, 0x300 is the default)
-D_3COM_USE_AUI Disable the 3c503's transceiver by
default (without this flag the transceiver
is on by default)
I have put it here, because I belive we could share some code among the
various kinds of boot-code, whenever we get the time to look at it.
