Hi,
I have a ltsp server running. One of the client is win98.
I would like the win98 client to be able to boot as thin client
without having to use a boot floppy. I need to set a boot selection
menu that will allow either boot from HDD or LAN ( connect to ltsp server ) .

Hi Varun.
This problem is more an etherboot-users question, but nevertheless it's easy.
Get an etherboot .COM file from www.rom-o-matic.net, matching your PC's NIC of course.
For Etherboot 5.2.2, select "DOS executable ROM image" and click on "options".
Set ASK_BOOT to -1 and "GET ROM". Save this ROM file as C:\etherb522.com
Then edit the files C:\config.sys and autoexec.bat as follows:
==========Config.sys:
[menu]
menuitem=win,Boot windows
menuitem=lts,Boot LTSP
menudefault=lts,12
[win]
... insert everything that was in config.sys before here ...
[lts]
[common]
===========Autoexec.bat:
@echo off
IF %CONFIG%P==LTSP C:\etherb522.com
... all old autoexec.bat stuff to come after this line
===========


Tell me if there are problems with this. Should work fine though.
