Short hint: booting via PXE WITHOUT NFS
Hi everybody,
just a quick hint for those who like to boot a grml-small via PXE but don't want to setup a NFS server for it.
With the old release I patched the initrd to achieve this, but since 2008.11 this works out of the box:
Setup your pxelinux.cfg like this: ---------------------------------------- LABEL grml-small-2008.11 MENU LABEL grml-small 2008.11 (HTTP) kernel grml/2008.11/small-linux26 append initrd=grml/2008.11/small-minirt26.gz boot=live \ fetch=http://archive.example.org/grml-2008.11/grml-small.squashfs \ nodhcp noeject vga=791 lang=de
have fun, Markus

I just *love* it when users locate new workflows on their own and even share them with us. :) Very cool - thanks, Markus!
