The following excerpt from isc-dhcp3-3.0.b1.17's dhcpd.conf works for me:
subnet 192.168.1.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
range 192.168.1.193 192.168.1.208;
filename "/tftpboot/ringnet.kernel.fd0";
option root-path "192.168.1.2:/usr/n/ringrowl/root";
host ringrowl {
hardware ethernet 00:01:02:ab:50:67;
fixed-address 192.168.1.66;
}
host ringcrawl {
hardware ethernet 00:01:02:1c:7d:ef;
fixed-address 192.168.1.67;
}
}
This specifies the same root path for all diskless stations - the rest
is left to the rc.diskless* scripts, which look for config files in
/conf/their.ip.address/etc/; just place an rc.conf there with overrides
over /etc/defaults/rc.conf, and.. ideally, things should work :)
Hope that helps :)
G'luck,
Peter
