As I said previously, the mechanisms to download an image are not a problem, the question is more - how do I build a kernel TO download. All the packages I've looked at say copy xxxx and "any kernel or initrd images you want to boot"
I think THAT is the area I am having a problem with :)
Sounds like you are on your way, wish I knew more, It would be great if you could post a short howto when you get it figured out. While writing this note I googled diskless+mini+howto and came op w/ this, http://www.uni-paderborn.de/Linux/mdw/HOWTO/mini/Diskless its quite old but may be of use. The following HowTo seems very thourough, (although still pretty old) section4 seems to address your kernel questions "4 Setting up the clients Because on a disk-less client all system files are actually on the server, this is where the entire client configuration will be done..." http://hobbes.jct.ac.il/docs/Diskless-HOWTO.html I'm not sure if you can do it w/out at least a floppy disk during setup though. good luck see ya - -- dh Don't shop at ZipZoomFly.com! -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFAZc9dBwgxlylUsJARAro+AKCT26PvDgaN76PCz20lxLAKOQa3HQCgjvdn lyj8NsutN+bUL5zDxjyeXqQ= =Pd/d -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
