See the respective manual pages and read diskless(8).
I already have diskless working out of the box with obsd as term-server and a generic PC as term. but this thin diskless workstation is something I've borrow from school because they are unused and I would like it to boot with bsd kernel. As described in my first post I've already tested with bsd.rd from 3.7/3.8 dir on the mirrors. What really confuses me is that it's freezing, >>OpenBSD/i386 PXEBOOT 1.02 booting tftp:/bsd 4807268- right here. I tried a linux kernel and it did boot the kernel at least. I might be missing something for the Geode GX1 in my GENERIC kernel? /bkw > > - Marc Balmer > -- ###################### BKW - Bachman Kharazmi bahkha AT gmail DOT com uin: #24089491 SWEDEN ###################### -- ###################### BKW - Bachman Kharazmi bahkha AT gmail DOT com uin: #24089491 SWEDEN ######################
