Just an idea for a workaround: Isn't it possible, outside of the LTSP code tree, to create one single gpxe-nbi.img file that would contain gPXE 1.0.0 and that could be used by anyone affected by this bug?
That could be used to properly boot all terminals that do not properly support PXE booting, and it would even give the sysadmin the usual pxelinux advantages, e.g. to easily pass kernel parameters from pxelinux.cfg/default or pass kernel parameters for specific clients from pxelinux.cfg/01-mac-address etc. The sysadmin would just have to manually download the gpxe-nbi.img file from some site and change his dhcpd.conf to point to it instead of nbi.img. The only downside I can think of is that gPXE would do a second DHCP request, which would add a small delay, but I don't think that would bother anyone. -- Etherboot floppy boot terminal appears to load image and failed with 'Issuing RESET:' on 9.10 https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/487826 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
