You can use the netboot support to download OS images from a network.
|
|
Nearly all the device drivers are coming from the network-based boot
|
|
loader, Etherboot. Please visit its web page. They have rich
|
|
documentations so you will be able to get useful information from there.
|
|
The URL is <http://etherboot.sourceforge.net/>.
|
|
|
|
These below are common options for configure. Perhaps you may not need
|
|
to specify them.
|
|
|
|
--disable-packet-retransmission
|
|
Turns off packet retransmission. Use it on an empty network, where
|
|
no packet collision can happen.
|
|
|
|
--enable-pci-direct
|
|
Define this for PCI BIOSes that do not implement BIOS32 or not
|
|
correctly.
|
|
|
|
--enable-diskless
|
|
Enable the diskless support. If specified, you will get two optional
|
|
images, called "nbgrub" and "pxegrub". The former is the ``Net Boot
|
|
Image Proposal'' format, which is used by Etherboot and Netboot, while
|
|
the latter is the ``Preboot Execution Environment" format, which is
|
|
used by a PXE ROM. You may buy a PXE ROM from some companies.
|
|
|
|
Here is the information about the device drivers. They are all disabled
|
|
by default, so you must specify configure options to enable drivers you
|
|
want to use. Some drivers have extra per-driver options, so the extra
|
|
options are also described below.
|
|
|
|
Caution: You should enable them as you need. Don't enable any
|
|
unnecessary driver, because GRUB might crash if you include too many
|
|
drivers at the same time.

--enable-cs-scan=LIST
|
|
Probe for CS89x0 base address using LIST of comma separated hex
|
|
addresses; increasing the address by one (0x300 -> 0x301) will force
|
|
a more aggressive probing algorithm. This might be neccessary after
|
|
a soft-reset of the NIC.

--enable-compex-rl2000-fix
|
|
If you have a Compex RL2000 PCI 32-bit (11F6:1401), and the probe
|
|
hangs in "Probing...[NE*000/PCI]", try enabling this fix... it
|
|
worked for me :).
|
|
--enable-ns8390-force-16bit
|
|
It seems that forcing 16 bit bus width for NEPCI causes
|
|
Etherboot/GRUB to fail on the RTL8029. Therefore
|
|
--enable-ns8390-force-16bit should only be turned on for those NEPCI
|
|
NICs that falsely detect 8 bit bus width when it should be 16.
