Well, the configs were the same as the diskless install docs on the |
| 20 |
Gentoo alt-install page, with suitable modifications of the ip and MAC |
| 21 |
addresses in the dhcpd.conf. I _was using pxegrub but, on a whim, I |
| 22 |
tried syslinux instead as per the Gentoo diskless howto and, without |
| 23 |
any further reconfiguration beyond pointing the client at pxelinix.0, |
| 24 |
it booted first time. After some tweaking of the client fstab and |
| 25 |
hosts files it now works fine. |

Thanks for the offer. I'm planning to add some more clients now that |
| 30 |
I have one working system. I'm almost certain to get stuck so I'll |
| 31 |
probably be back asking again. |

Cheers, |
