Hi all, I've been after a pxeBOOT option for a long time (way back in the days). Apart from the obvious, is it hard to pxe boot bering. (not install, but actually boot the system via dhcp/pxe/tftp.
I mean everything is already package based (.lrp), it already uses a file system based in memory, If someone could point me in a direction for adding support to add tftp to the package loading then I'm happy to do some leg work here. The only bit I guess would be "saving" the config, but I guess again couldn't it be supported write over tftp? I just want to know if there is anything bleeding obvious that wouldn't allow bering to be booted over pxe? (again not boot to install, but actually boot to a running system) It would mean a headless/diskless router/firewall, and for me that's very appealing. Hardware failure would just mean a simple update on a mac address on my pxe config file for the new machine (as long as nic's are the same) and turn it on. I already have an environment that boots pxe (vmware hypervisor, all my vmware hosts are diskless, expanding the cloud is just add machines and pxe boot them). If I could add my firewall and routers to this mix I would have a very transportable environment. Just thought I would ask as I know there are some PXE install questions going around and thought the mindset might be the time to ask.
