Some additional information regarding the announcement of the new version of
pxeconfig utilities (1.0.0):

* There is a new PXE menu system (contributed by yours truly) which allows
   you to control the computer's booting interactively at the console.
   Very, very useful.

* The pxeconfig homepage is at https://subtrac.sara.nl/oss/pxeconfig
   where you'll find documentation etc.

* Download the pxeconfig utilities from ftp://ftp.sara.nl/pub/outgoing/

We look forward to your feedback on the sisuite mailing list !

Best regards,
Ole
