I would also like to discuss the recent my and Bosko Milekic's recent start on making the network stack MPsafe, so any smp gurus showing up would be most appreciated. I'd also like to thank Mike Smith in advance for his recent work on the PXE->NFS_ROOT stuff, if I have time I'll try to adapt my tutorial to use it. I'd also like to point out that although I've done PXE setups for two companies now, the majority of the actual code was done by Paul Saab, Peter Wemm at Yahoo! and Johnathan Baldwin at BSDi. -- -Alfred Perlstein - [bright@wintelcom.net|alfred@freebsd.org] "I have the heart of a child; I keep it in a jar on my desk."
