[Qemu-devel] don't require a disk image for network boot

[Ferenc Wagner]

Hi,

What do you think about the following patch?  As a side note, I'd
really prefer option roms with serial output enabled (check
CONSOLE_DUAL on rom-o-matic).  Maybe even uncheck ASK_BOOT...  Hmm,
maybe that's already done, I couldn't see... :)

Anyway, thanks for the nice work!

Regards,
Feri.
