My goal is to be able to multiboot FreeBSD, Linux and some other OSes and different versions using PXE. I don't want to install boot loaders on hard disks because I want to boot several different machines to different OSes every now and then. I don't like the idea of using a boot floppy or boot CD either.
Any other suggestions?
I don't understand your question completly:
a. Do you want to boot different machines differently from the same server? b. Do you want to boot the same machine but different versions of FreeBSD? c. Do you want to create a diskless multiboot machine?
or..?
a: For each host you can specify different pxeboot loader and different root-path in the dhcpd.conf. b: Booting the pxeboot-loader it will run the loader.rc scripts, you can set this up to offer different boot menu. If you use TFTP to fetch these, this can set different nfs root paths c: This I don't know.
cheers, Erik
