Title: Re: [Oscar-devel] RFC: UYOK option in "Setup Networking"?
I believe atftp is currenly in "bug-fix" mode.  Perhaps you can check to see if a bug is already filed or not.
 
So how about this.  By default, if the user clicks on "Setup Network Boot", the default kernel/initrd.img from SysetmImager is copied to /tftpboot as: install-kernel-$ARCH and install-initrd-$ARCH.img.
 
If "Enable UYOK" is selected, then using OS_Detect, we will determine the headnode's OS and would generate UYOK kernel + ramdisk and copy that to /tftpboot/install-kernel-$DISTRO-$ARCH and install-initrd-initrd-$DISTRO-$ARCH.img.  The files in /etc/systemimager/boot will then be deleted (to prevent any confusion).
 
The default /tftpboot/kernel /tftpboot/inird.img are then symlinked accordingly within /tftpboot.
 
I'll investigate whether you can generate UYOK based on chroot image...
 
Sounds good?
 
Cheers,
 
Bernard

I'd consider that a bug and a security problem that might get fixed some
time.

Sounds like a good idea.
