We have to decide how to express "root server" in bootp.
Simply using the bootp server is bad (at least in my
environment).
Further I'd like to define a word to use as bootfile argument
in the bootp request. This makes it easier in more complex
and/or multi-OS environment to setup the bootp servers.
