Booting from the network

2 options are available here

Network boot disk

If you do not have a bootable network card, you can create a network boot disk instead. See the GRUB manual for details, or use ROM-o-matic or the GRUB network boot-disk creator.

NIC-based network boot

To boot JNode from the network, you will need a bootable network card, a DHCP/BOOTP and TFTP server setup.

  • Set the TFTP base directory to <JNode dir>/all/build/x86/netboot
  • Set the boot file to nbgrub-<card> where <card> is the card you are using
  • Set DHCP option 150 to (nd)/menu-nb.lst
