Paul,
Thanks.
You've done this in exactly the right way, i.e., by using the pxelinux
ability to send a node back for a local boot.
We should also provide for the full generalization of the capability,
e.g., look at file contents instead of just a symlink target, allow for
the targeting multiple nodes by IP prefix, none of which are hard.
This is certainly on our plans, I'd like to consider it for our 4.2
release.
I'm not totally sure that symlinks aren't the better way, it allows for
single template files to be modified, rather then having to hack around
in a bunch of files if you want to change a setting. I like the idea of
IP prefix as well.. I'll see what I can do about adding that in, Is
there anything else that uses ip prefixes at this point?
