[K12OSN] Apple ibooks DO netboot to ltsp

[cliebow at downeast.net]

so far only in openfirmware..cmd-option-o-f into firmware i hit enter and 
give firmware password..it says ok..then type boot enet:192.168.0.1 
(server name)
that is all on client side..

i used bill cavalieris yaboot yaboot.conf ,kernel and initrd on server 
side.
dhcpd.conf is the big rig..it passes option 43 to make ibook all yingly 
inside
