[Bill C. <bi...@ca...>]

Request for Proposal - Patch for tftp ip address

Please send your quote for this project to Bill Cavalieri
(bi...@ca...), include either a hourly rate with estimated hours
to complete project, or a set fee.  This patch would be offered back to
the etherboot maintainers, and available for download from my site.  The
programmer and my company would be listed in the credits.  

Please submit a phone number, and an appropriate time that you can be
reached to discuss project (communication from then on would be by
email).

You would receive a small upfront payment as a gesture of good will, and
the rest of payment on delivery of final patch.


Desc:
I would like to be able to use etherboot in networks where I have no
control over the dhcp server, for the purpose of booting off a LTSP
server.

Project:
To be able to create an etherboot image, that receives the client ip
address from any dhcp server, and has the tftp server ip address hard
coded in the image.  The tftp and LTSP would be on the same server.
Floppy drives would be the predominant method of booting.

Deliverables:
source code patch for etherboot
instructions on creating floppy image with patch
