Yeah i actually believe it's much easier handling than DHCP/TFTP, but most likely not easy to implement in the ComBios ;-) By just adding the URL, it's much easier just to ship it to any network with internet access, and install it, Soekris could even have an HTTP server with the images available. It's an luxury when you have 100% control of both the HW and the BIOS as Soekris has, and should take advantage of ;-) ///Thomas _______________________________________________ Soekris-tech mailing list Soekris-tech@lists.soekris.com http://lists.soekris.com/mailman/listinfo/soekris-tech
