This is obvious because after you installed the kernel you have to tell
to pmon where it is.

The first time, when you still don't have the boot.cfg file, you could
give it to pmon by hand.

Press canc when lemote logo appears
then write:

load /dev/fs/address@hidden/boot/vmlinux-2.6.32.4-libre-lemote
initrd /dev/fs/address@hidden/boot/initrd.img-2.6.32.4-libre-lemote
console=tty no_auto_cmd machtype=8.9


Then it should boot.

After booting you can become root and create a file called  boot.cfg
inside /boot

The content of this file has to be the one described on our page
