The rarp.xml writes: Linux 2.4.x kernel, there is no RARP module, and you should instead use the rarpd program. Anyway, we, D.I.S.T., should not worry about a RARP server, just realize that there are SUN computers that netboot by RARP. It is for the support of those clientsss to write about RARP in the d-i manual. Will someone commit the previous posted patch? Cheers Geert Stappers
