  CMOS restore!
  power-up while pressing on the 'E' key
  wait until the LCD reads "CMOS restored"
  power-down
  release the 'E' key
  power-up while pressing on the 'S' key
  when "options" shows in the LCD
  Select "net-boot"
  Press the 'E' key
  The restore process should continue.

  NOTE: anytime the ROM is reflashed, a CMOS restore should be done.
        Thes will setup the CMOS RAM to match the new ROM.
