But what I want is a net-BOOT not a net-install. It also produces two files named initrd.gz and vmlinuz, which (supposedly) can be used together to netboot an i386 machine. I'm not sure of the exact semantics of this, personally. > How can I get a tftpboot file to really netboot ? > How can I get same file for an alpha ? An SRM-netbootable daily image for alpha is available at <http://people.debian.org/~vorlon/d-i/images/daily/netboot/>. Cheers, -- Steve Langasek postmodern programmer
