Subject: sparc kernels and bootp
Date: Tue, 15 Aug 1995 09:52:46 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <19950815135246.3jwy2bffbgOEWNSp8vw4Ao9D-TPqEJo_3Xp0KKcrJfw@z> (raw)
bootparams has nothing to do with BOOTP. bootparams is used by
sun's very own /usr/etc/rpc.bootparamd, which uses SUN RPC/XDR.
actually, i'm curious how you encoded the information in bootparams.
anyhow, pick up the Unix bootp daemon from plan9.att.com in /plan9/unixsrc/bootp/ .
that version replies correctly to a plan 9 bootp request
(there's a convention for `vendor specific' data).
the daemon might require changes to work on a Sun. most things do.
the sparc Plan 9 kernel is the same as all the others in its
use of bootp (that part is in portable code).
