And if you press L etherboot exits and the boot continues. Are you asking for a way to say boot locally with an ethernet packet. Something like filename="/dev/hda"; But with the BIOS doing the actual loading? So if you have a BBS compliant bios you set etherboot up first in the boot order and this works (assuming you don't loose your cmos options.) A dhcp option to tell etherboot to give up sounds sane. Potentially an option to disable just BBS support but not PCI PnP support may also be sane. Though I would have to research that a little more to see. Eric |
