Bug#608746: etherboot: switch to ipxe?

2011-01-03 Thread Michael Prokop
Package: etherboot
Version: 5.4.4-8
Severity: wishlist


Are there any plans to switch to the ipxe codebase or will the
etherboot Debian package stay based on the etherboot/gpxe code for
the foreseeable future (so people might consider packaging ipxe
independent from the etherboot package)?

See http://git.ipxe.org/ipxe.git/commit/8406115 and
http://ipxe.org/faq#how_does_ipxe_relate_to_gpxe_and_etherboot
for further details.

regards,
-mika-

ipxe is packaged seperately, replacing etherboot for wheezy, see #474034
for progress. now that new processing seems working again, i'll catch up
with it after my vac.
