hi, all.
i am trying to use memdisk (http://syslinux.zytor.com/memdisk.php) to
boot dos floppy images over the network. as i understand it, memdisk
acts like a linux kernel and grub should be able to boot it ok. however,
when i try i get the following error:
root (nd)
Filesystem type is tftp,
i'm not sure if this is possible, but i'd like to boot nbi images from
grub. in particular, i need to boot dos from an image over the network.
is this possible?
thanks.
