Re: [Xen-devel] Diskless boot at cambridge

Kip,
We use either grub with tftp (limited driver support here), or XenoBoot
(now an optional function of the new Xen demo CD). We have a fairly
elaborate system involving our lab-wide NFS tree and scripts and
symlinks for getting the right images for each machine. Root filesystems
for diskless systems are either iSCSI, as previously discussed or NFS.
I am using Grub 0.95 with an UNDI patch I found somewhere, that means I
can PXE-boot from some (at least e1000) network adapters not directly
supported by Grub.
I would recommend NFS for debug-rootfs, as with iSCSI you still have a
chance of corrupting the fs image.
