In the end I created a 100Mb partition on each drive (I know it could have been smaller, but 100Mb is fine), formatted it so it boots DOS. I used MSDOS, in retro I could have used DR-DOS. Like it matters. Anyway, I created a .com file from www.rom-o-matic.com, and then use autoexec.bat to run the .com file. It works for me.
Probably not the most elegant way of doing it, but it gets them booting until I get the bootroms working.

Hi there all, I am just starting with ltsp and have been booting from a floppy, it is pretty straight forward.I have not been able to find the eprom locally, so while I do more research I chose to boot the terminal from the hard drive. The closest I have found is this text http://etherboot.sourceforge.net/doc/html/lilo+etherboot-2.html But I see it a little confusing, for now I have installed the terminals hard disk on the server, successfully cfdisk it and mkfs.ext2 -c /dev/hdc1 successfully, is there a simple instructions on how to procede? Im scared of blowing my server with lilo commands 8/ btw, I actually dd from the floppys eb image to the hd but that didnt work hehehe __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
