GC, what do you say?

==================================
I'm trying to deploy Mandrake over the network by creating an Etherboot
image from the Mandrake network boot floppy using mknbi-dos. My ultimate
plan is the ability to automate the deployment of Mandrake via PXE or
Etherboot.  This will eliminate the need for a network boot floppy.
Unfortunately, the process fails when linux script attempts to mount the
floppy drive to access the auto_inst.cfg file.

I am sure that I could  modify syslinux.cfg to get the auto_inst.cfg
file
from an NFS-mounted directory.  For instance, instead of having  append
kickstart=floppy
I wish to have:
append kickstart=nfs:servername:/ks/auto_inst.cfg

Red Hat offers this flexibility in Kickstart and I was wondering if
Mandrake
offers a similar option.

TIA.
