Boot a Diskless PC Using a TCP/IP Based Ethernet Network
Features:
- Booting a diskless client either from an EPROM or from a floppy
without additional utility tools
- The Bootrom code can use many standard DOS packet drivers and
therefore supports almost any PC network card
- Easy configuration of the bootrom under UNIX
- The bootrom can load a BOOTP vendor extension file to support more
space for tags according to RFC 1533
- Using the bootrom menu support, it is possible to optionally boot
different operating systems
- Even if there is a hard disk installed in the client computer,
bootrom can be used as a boot manager, because it also allows
booting from any partition
- Cross-gateway booting
- Bootrom runs on any 80x86 processor but is optimized for the 386+
- Able to boot different operating systems--Linux and MS-DOS (and
clones) are currently supported
