Further to this I've read at Linux.com (so I don't know if it is accurate or not) "If you want to install an image and are not deploying based on IP addresses, you can specify parameters at the boot prompt. For example, using kernel IMAGESERVER=192.168.0.1 IMAGENAME=bob at the boot CD prompt will deploy the image bob from the server at 192.168.0.1 to the client machine" How can I specify these parameters? As whenever I boot from the CD it immediately bypasses the boot prompt and starts doing its own thing?
