Jarod,
Thanks for those pointers. I had the client made up from the
system-config-netboot point in about an hour. I've almost got this
dumb netbooting pc working (I think). When the client tried to load,
it got along pretty far until I hit this:
kernel panic: No init found. Try passing init= option to kernel
I went over to busybox and googled with no fix. I've tried passing
init=/bin/sh in the kernel with no luck. What am I missing?
Thanks,
Paul
