Well, the configs were the same as the diskless install docs on the Gentoo alt-install page, with suitable modifications of the ip and MAC addresses in the dhcpd.conf. I _was using pxegrub but, on a whim, I tried syslinux instead as per the Gentoo diskless howto and, without any further reconfiguration beyond pointing the client at pxelinix.0, it booted first time. After some tweaking of the client fstab and hosts files it now works fine. > i think I might be able to help you. Thanks for the offer. I'm planning to add some more clients now that I have one working system. I'm almost certain to get stuck so I'll probably be back asking again. Cheers, Roger -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
