Digging into this, as we rework it, here's a question: assuming the system being pxebooted is server 1, and the tftp server is server 2, on server 2, in the menu for pxeboot, is there any way to specify that the image to boot, and the initrd, are on a server 3? That is, MENU repoboot KERNEL repo://my/repo/images/vmlinuz APPEND repo://my/repo/images/initrd.img (or an IP address, like 192.168.1.13, for the server named repo)? mark
