This is probably the best plan for the long term, but since the payload works so well (Etherboot loads, gets IP, gets ELF image, and jumps to ELf image with kernel, which finds initrd) as it is I wouldn't change that part of the system until the first problem was solved. I really like FILO too, it's a neat payload! :) //Peter _______________________________________________ Linuxbios mailing list Linuxbios@clustermatic.org http://www.clustermatic.org/mailman/listinfo/linuxbios
