[PATCH 0/9] net: Allow global.net.server being a hostname

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



So far global.net.server has been an IPv4 address. Add support for it
being a hostname which is resolved to an address when necessary. This
also adds the NFS server address to the nfsroot string passed to Linux
so that Linux can boot from servers other than the one specified in the
DHCP answer.
