No, nothing to report there.

I first tried the Lucid packages, but they don't include the a2boot binary
necessary for netbooting (presumably because it's not compiled by default).

Steven's modified 2.0.3 package (which he used on Ubuntu 6.06) addressed
various netbooting and other Apple II issues. It appears to me that some or
most of those changes were incorporated into 2.0.5; at this point, I'm 98%
convinced that the 2.0.5 source, when compiled correctly on 10.04, works
just fine, and that it's only a configuration issue that I'm having, because
clearly it's netbooting and authenticating login; it's only post-login that
there is an issue, and the symptom is the same even when I use his version
in his similar environment.
