Hahahaha, that's the second time this happens to me - I sold a Sun U10 to someone here in the region a while ago, only to find out *later* that I already had PM contact with him about an Indigo2 on Nekochan a while before that... Yup, it's a small world. :-) > I assume you've already found this old post (to this list actually): > http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/msg02195.html > The prom settings quoted as working there are as follows: > setenv SystemPartition bootp(): > setenv OSLoader linux.pongo > setenv OSLoadPartition /dev/nfs > setenv OSLoadOptions ip=bootp Yes, I've seen that one - but discarded it... Now I'm rereading it I notice that I've completely and utterly misinterpreted that post - DUH! For some odd reason, I thought that "pongo" would be some kind of special loader, rather than a host name. I feel stupid now... Anyway - thanks a mil for reminding me of that post, I'll experiment with that tonight or tomorrow.
