Given what we know today, RFC 3942 could certainly have documented more
of this, but it also

Noted. It looks like we all get to apply for a new option code when the
process becomes available.

draft describing what you want to do.
In the case of GRUB, specifically, what I would suggest is that new
versions of GRUB should send a vendor-class-identifier option, and
should be prepared to receive a vendor-specific encapsulated option.
However, it should also request option 150

Hello,
I would like to notify that GNU GRUB uses the DHCP option 150, according to
RFC 3942.
GNU GRUB Configuration Path
This specifies the path-name that contains a configuration for GNU GRUB.
The code for this option is 150. Its minimum length is 1.

I've got grub PXEing, but it just gets to a grub prompt and disregards
the config file i pass it
here's the entry i'm using in dhcpd.conf:
host fred {
hardware ethernet XX:XX:XX:XX:XX:XX;
fixed-address XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX;
option option-150 grubconfig;
filename pxegrub;
}
both pxegrub
It may be dependent of the TFTP-Server setup, but under normal
circumstances you must give the full path to DHCP, especially
for the files passed to GRUB (i.e. option-150).
So use
option option-150 (nd)/tftpboot/grubconfig
The (nd) prefix is also important. There are constellations
Hello Mr. Okuji,
I have not analysed the contents of the documentation yet in this
detail, but is there mentioned, that the string passed over via
`option-150' (TAG 150) should include the `(nd)' prefix.
As described in the mail (see below), there are constellations,
where a missed `(nd)' can

Here's a so-far-untested patch that should make GRUB use BOOTP/DHCP
vendor attribute 150 to specify the name of the configuration file to
use.
Thanks
