Hi list,
I have successfully set up a client for diskless(8) booting.
However, this works only when booting from the first (onboard) nic.
When i use another nic, the kernel still tries to do revarp from the
first nic, which fails.
sys/nfs/nfs_boot.c offers a possibility to override the default search:
/*
* Find a network interface.
*/
if (nfsbootdevname)
ifp = ifunit(nfsbootdevname);
else <search loop>
...
but where/how can i set nfsbootdevname?
The boot.conf(8) manpage talks about passing options to the kernel via
"set howto". Could i use that?
