I think that might be one of Kumba's old netboots that didn't quite work
right. If I'm not mistaken, he has come up with a new way of making
them with an embedded initrd that ActuallyWorks(tm). You might ask him
on our irc channel when he rises from the dead (usually later PM Eastern
time).
If you just want a kernel only, you can try
http://dev.gentoo.org/~geoman/vmlinux64-2004-11-06.bz2 for now. It
should work, with the exception of rtc failing.
