Subject: [9fans] ethernet booting
Topicbox-Message-UUID: 44f7feb8-ead6-11e9-9d60-3106f5b1d025

I'm booting over ethernet, using the basic 9load (not 9pxeload).
However, in /lib/ndb/local on my CPU server (where it downloads
9load), I can only specify

bootf=/386/9load

that is, I can't specify an INI file. I know the 9pxeload loader looks
in /cfg/pxe/<macaddr> to grab INI details; what can be done for
basic 9load? Is there some specification? Can I get it to download
the INI file as well, some how?


Thanks,
ak
