[Etherboot-developers] Is it possible to hardwire paths to kernel&root?

[Hannu M. <mar...@pe...>]

Hei,

We have DHCP-servers (Win NT) and I cannot use Unix dhcp-servers (Well,
or course I could, but this must work also on other subnets...).
And it would be mission impossible to have the NT-servers provide
necessary information/files for LTSP systems.

What I need is to be able to hardwire
	tftp-server
	kernel-path
into etherboot images. They could be overridden if dhcp-server provides
something else.

I would especially like if services like "rom-o-matic" would add this
their image-generators.
Just couple of more lines asking "tftp-server" and "path to kernel".

It also would be nice to be able to "hardwire" NFS-server and path to
root-image at the same time (I know this info can be put into kernel
images).

I'd really like to see these features in standard etherboot package, but
if anyone knows how to "hack" these values in, I'd be happy enough...
