Hi,
I'm trying to create a pxe netboot floppy. It seems that the
rom-o-matic 5.3.7 image appears to almost work -- it gets a dhcp address
and fetches the pxe image from the server, which appears to start to
load the kernel, but then it stops.
I assume that this is due to the fact that rom-o-matic.net offers the
configuration option to boot FreeBSD, but not NetBSD.
Has anybody looked at getting etherboot to support NetBSD?
Or, what are the alternatives? Surely there's a way to boot a floppy to
pxe boot a NetBSD system!
Thanks in advance for all help,
-Jan
