Hi Phillip.
I suspect that maybe tomsrtbt ships with a newer 2c589_cs.o than debian
does. I don't know if it'll help, but I'd try the debian 2.4.18 boot
disks images at
ftp://ftp.citylink.co.nz/debian/dists/stable/main/disks-i386/current/images-1.44/bf2.4
They've dug me out of similar holes in the past.
Cheers
Si
