Hi Victor
[snip]
Interesting -- I have been working on implementing code to detect and
configure network interfaces according to the netboot.txt kernel
document. The code I have written so far is browseable at
http://git.fnordovax.org/dracut/log/?h=network-configurability
(and it even works some of the time), and I would appreciate input from
someone who actually uses that functionality on a daily basis.
Looks good. I'm actually considering replacing our own initrd with this
one when we upgrade our netboots to 2.6.29.
Though I see a small problem: Ever thought about what happens if there
are multiple interfaces on different networks? Only one is valid to
mount the root-fs... Currently I've solved that by upping each interface
and then ping-testing the nfs-server... Any better ideas?
Thanks,
Philippe
