-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi
Short question : dhcpd has special options for grub-net[1] support, like option grub-config code 150 = text; option grub-config "(nd)/grubconfig"; This allows to use grub-net for remote boot. Is there grub-net support in dnsmasq? 1. http://debian.jones.dk/hykrion/pool-etch/sid-jones/grub/grub-net_0.95+cvs20040624-17.0.jones.1_all.deb Long explanation : I used Debian and lessdisks + dnsmasq for remote boot. Recently I wanted to switch to kernel-2.6.14-2, because of new hardware. 2.6.14 requires to use new "yaird" instead of "mkinitrd". Yaird produces initrd which can be loaded only by grub-net. In grub-net package I found example (see below) for dhcp3 server in /usr/share/doc/grub-net/examples/dhcpd.conf. There is now example for dnsmasq. I find nothing in documentaion/FAQ. Is there any way to add support for grub-net in dnsmasq? This is an example for dhcp3 server which I found in grub-net package: # Example dhcp3 fragment # GRUB (Grand Unified Boot Loader) option grub-configfile code 150 = text; class "grub-hosts" { match pick-first-value (option dhcp-client-identifier, hardware); server-name "bootserver.example.com"; next-server 192.168.102.252; # IP of TFTP server (only needed if separate from DHCP server) # option tftp-server-name "192.168.102.252"; # same as (or similar to) next-server above (not tested) option dhcp-max-message-size 2048; option grub-configfile "(nd)/grub-menu.lst"; if substring (option vendor-class-identifier, 0, 9) = "PXEClient" { filename "pxegrub-via-rhine"; } else { filename "nbgrub-via-rhine"; } } - -- Best regards, Sergey Spiridonov -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.1 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Thunderbird - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFDwkoBJ3NEeIx4r3YRAuXNAJ0eW0xZB5wN3zGlE2bfXxVs08ORBgCfe00Q sCz6XfRfFjRWwzZbloD4d5Q= =/W2Z -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
