It's interesting. I'll have to take a look at it more. You're right that I do have most of it already scripted. However, since I haven't turned it in yet, I'm always looking for ways to make the overall process simpler. Just out of curiosity, what IS fcoe? For that matter, I keep hearing about iscsi, but the only *scsi things I've ever heard about are the old trio of SCSI, Ultra SCSI (USCSI) and Ultra-Wide SCSI (UWSCSI). This iscsi thing is an unknown to me besides the fact that I've heard of it before. :) Besides, even if I don't use ipxe for this project, it's something good to have on hand for future reference. :) I'll take a look at the site. Mind sending me some of your scripts for it so I can see how it would be implemented?
