What are the chances of being able to get kernels/ramdisks over http
with grub?
Our tftp server is falling over with multiple machines trying to tftp
kernels and ramdisks to boot,
and an http-get function would easily solve this problem. How hard
would this be to implement?

Can you explain why does switching from TFTP to
The TFTP service isn't very reliable, and it falls over with 32 nodes
all requesting
kernels/ramdisks at the same time. HTTP is much more scalable, and load
can be balanced
much more easily.
