etherboot & NFS

#include <hallo.h>



Today i tried booting without tftp but with NFS. After removing

(begin at line 318 in nfs.c)
        if (fname < dirname) {
                printf("can't parse file name %s\n", name);
                return 0;
        }

it worked. I(!!) can't see anything usefull in this if. It only prevented
me from booting with nfs.

(I can't provide the exact bootptab. As i did this at work.)

- bootptab -
kenmex2:\
        :vm=auto:\
        :T128=E44574680000:\
        :T184="ESC[31m":\

        :T188="º          º":\

        :hn:to=36000:ha=00504d007988:ip=192.168.10.12
- end -


P.S. At work the "ESC"s are converted. :-)

Real Programmers consider "what you see is what you get" to be just as 
bad a concept in Text Editors as it is in women. No, the Real Programmer
wants a "you asked for it, you got it" text editor -- complicated, 
cryptic, powerful, unforgiving, dangerous.
