Useful files for HP9000/300 Linux To diskless boot over the network, you have to do something like this:
  1. Make sure that your server machine has rpc.bootparamd, rbootd, rarp and nfsd installed.
  2. Create a directory /usr/mdec/rbootd and put SYS_UBOOT in it.
  3. Add the client machine to the RARP and bootparams tables on the server.
  4. Create a directory /tftpboot/<client>, make it NFS exported and put the compressed kernel image there (call it "netbsd.gz")
  5. That's it.
