That code has never compiled except on FreeBSD as it depends on some FreeBSD headers. Fixing it so that it compiles on Linux is desirable as it could host syslinux almost as easily as it hosts FreeBSD, and the code would stop bitrotting. Most of what is required is to track down the definitions needed from the FreeBSD headers and creating a header that can be included in etherboot. It should be possible to get the deffinitions from the PXE spec as well as FreeBSD. At that point it would provide enough PXE support that most users would not care about the difference. Eric |
