Most of the decstations are able to boot via "bootp" tftp ... boot 3/tftp on the prom console does the work. But: There are some BootProm versions which cant boot LARGE images or cannot boot tftp at all (implemented but essentially broken) - These proms are rare but happen to come up regularly - There is a "mopd" for linux available somewhere and i managed to get it running some months ago although i personally dont need it - But i had no clue how a mop image must look like (Special header).
