[Etherboot-developers] [PATCH] Allow for configuration files with lines longer than 256 chars

[Will N. <wa...@cc...>]

Howdy All,

I've got a gpxe configuration file served over HTTP for performing
Ubuntu Hardy installations. The kernel like looks like:
"kernel http://install.localnet/ubuntu/dists/hardy/main/installer-i386/current/images/netboot/386/ubuntu-installer/i386/linux
console-setup/ask_detect=false console-setup/layoutcode=us
debian-installer/locale=en_US.UTF-8 debian-installer/country=US
netcfg/choose_interface=eth0 netcfg/get_hostname=unconfigured
preseed/url=http://install.localnet/p.cfg"

The problem is that line is 351 chars in length (shortened from what
it was originally!). I'm attaching a patch so that gpxe will process
this file correctly.
The attached patch changes the cmdbuf from a size of 256 to 512.

Thanks,
