[tech] Mudhead

Hey all

I've got mudhead up and running the latest matt compiled kernel + image.
The only problem is that that image by itself doesn't do networking
right; the /bin/sh that matt's image provides has only bourne shell, not
csh, semantics.

/etc/network/* was using setenv not FOO=blah; export FOO

Fixed that and it brought the network up.

Also note that ifconfig doesn't add an implicit route, so you need to do 
  ifconfig eth0 130.95.13.xx netmask 255.255.255.192
  route add -net 130.95.13.yy netmask 255.255.255.192
otherwise it won't work and you'll stare at it wondering for a bit.

Cheers
Grahame

PS: Matt, please don't break it again ;-)
