I am trying to boot diskless windows 98 workstations from grub. I have pxe
compliant system boards with the onboard LAN cards. When the system boot my
dhcp/tftp server provides the system with the pxegrub file. The system boots
to a grub command prompt. I can manually load a Linux kernel across the
network using the example below. I cannot figure out how to load a Windows
98 image across the network for a diskless client. Looking at this example:
Grub > root (nd)
Grub > kernel /tftproot/gnumach.gz root=sd0s1
Grub > module /tftproot/serverboot.gz
Grub > boot
I understand the reference to (nd), but why are we telling the kernel that
the physical root device is sd0s1 when this is suppose to be a diskless
client or is this parameter telling the kernel that the physical root device
on the (nd) is sd0s1? What would it take to download a Windows 98 image
onto a diskless client? The document failed to explain any further about the
down load of diskless images. Is there a detailed source for the commands
for grub? I would appreciate any help or references to help.
Thanks in advance,
Carl Chandler
