Hi,

I was reading this article about creating a diskless
X-terminal.

http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/diskless-x/article.html


This part specifically:

http://www.freebsd.org/tutorials/diskless-x/x33.html

talks about DOS executable files which you can run to
then have the system boot off the network. It only
talks about support for two cards/chipsets.  Can I do
this somehow with other cards/chipsets?

Is it possible to put the boot-rom code that a vendor
supplies onto a floppy and boot it from there instead?

Any help on this issue appreciated.

Thanks,
Paul
