I have read (And re-read) the Handbook entry on remote booting, and it isn't as much as I'd like it to be. I'm more then willing to pitch in and massage the docs, if need be, but I have to figure out how the darn thing works first!!! I've got a few configs that I've tried. One hangs early (right after getting the parms), one hangs on getting to the early "text" message of FreeBSD, and another gets further, but not to a login prompt or anything like that. If this is an "easy" RTFM, someone point me to it. Otherwise, I'd appreciate any pointers into this problem. Thanks, Gerald
