All, I've done some hacking on bootparamd to support multiple subnets (along with applying some patches to allow some Sun-specific behavior) that I'm using for jumpstarting Solaris/Sparc boxes across a boatload of small subnets. The most obvious change is adding a -R parameter, that allows you to specify a router and netmask (and multiple -R's are accepted), so that bootparamd can build an internal list of subnets and gateways when multihomed, or supporting VLANs via the vlan(4) driver. I can provide patches against 6.0, and with a bit of work, -current (I doubt there is much change). Is there sufficient interest to make it worth bundling up the diffs? -Brian
