RE: [SLE] Kernel level DHCP??
I know the BOOTP options works which is the precursor to DHCP. I have a couple of diskless systems here using it, but would like to move them onto the DHCP server, so can you let me know if you get it working? RikD.

Hi,
Seems a great idea. Anyone any idea how (or if) it works yet? My idea would be a rebuild the kernel on the bootdisk image to allow ftp install by using dchp. Unless someone knows something that I don't to get this to work. Which certainly would not be the first time.
Any help appreciated. Cheers, Tom

I have it working under Etherboot. See /usr/src/linux/Documentation/nfsroot.txt (or http://etherboot.sf.net/ ) for more details. Basically, I set the commandline to 'nfsroot=dhcp' after I enabled dhcp in the kernel. You may also have to set some options in your dhcpcd.conf as well. -- James Oakley Engineering - SolutionInc Ltd. joakley@solutioninc.com http://www.solutioninc.com
