[syslinux] [PATCH] nictype.c32: PXELINUX module to display UNDI NIC bus type...

[Torgeir.Wulfsberg at kongsberg.com]

Hello Shao!

Did not know that :) Okey then, that worked great.
Knowing, THAT works....

Could't we just have this from pxelinux instead? Dont need any config files at all?

label install
com32 nictype.c32
append --if_vendor_id 00100222 --boot_this ipxe.pxe.0 --or_fallback_to undionly.kpxe.0

Where "--if_vendor_id" tries to match that vendor id we sent as an argument "00100222" and "--boot_this" executes "syslinux_run_command("ipxe.pxe.0")" or fallback to "syslinux_run_command("undionly.kpxe.0")"

Does that makes any sense?

Hello again, Torgeir.

I'm glad if you enjoy nictype.c32.

You don't need to modify it at all, as you can use the --fallback to execute
undionly.kpxe:

LABEL install
  COM32 nictype.c32
  APPEND --config --fallback undionly.0

Simply rename undionly.kpxe to undionly.0, then PXELINUX will auto-detect it
as a PXE image.  That way, you don't need your nictype.fallback file at all.
