In addition to what Shao said about the .lkrn accept-command-line-arguments patch, you should be aware that at the present time gPXE doesn't actually support booting from SAN using the ElTorito standard used by CDs. I am working on a patch to remedy this fact, and I've SAN-booted an ISO successfully with it, but it involves a major restructuring of loadable image support and has a large size impact (~1kB) which is undesirable for the users of gPXE who need to fit it into ROM. So it will probably be a while before this is in mainline, or even in staging. In the meantime you could try with GRUB4DOS, as Shao suggested. -- Josh _______________________________________________ gPXE mailing list [email protected] http://etherboot.org/mailman/listinfo/gpxe
