Re: etherboot same as netboot?

[Christoph Plattner <christoph.plattner@alcatel.at>]

As far as I konw, 
	netboot-0.x.x is not the same as etherboot.

netboot-0.x.x consist of two main parts. One concers the subject around
the bootroms, the other subject around the creation of netbootable
images, that means preparing images to be downloaded via netboot.

etherboot-x.x.x has another but similar approach of creating boot proms.
etherboot also includes the part of netboot preparing netbootable
images.

What I mean is: etherboot also consists of the two parts, where the
second part is taken from netboot-0.8.1 package.

The use of OS is an other point of view. I don't know, which packet for
which OS usable is.

Friendly regards
