Hello,
I would like to achieve this goal:
- start bootloader using syslinux or isolinux from hard drive or CD (not pxe)
- init network, get IP address somehow from DHCP
- download kernel and initrd from FTP server (hosted on public internet)
- boot it
Is this currently possible with syslinux or isolinux?
I can do it when I boot over PXE from network, using PXELINUX.
But I would like to have the bootloader on disk for example, and load
vmlinuz+initrd "from network", to avoid the need for pxe server at
all.
Thank you
Tomas M
