Yes, this was what I was getting at. I want to be able to do 'boot net' in the openboot prom. I suppose I didn't describe correctly. Thanks for the pointer, my searching hadn't found that, perhaps because it's so old. Unfortunately, the 2 links for the loader (one for nfs and one for tftp) are dead. I wonder whether anyone can suggest how I go about creating this myself? -- Duncan Hutty
