Most of the decstations are able to boot via "bootp" tftp ...
boot 3/tftp
on the prom console does the work. But: There are some BootProm versions
which cant boot LARGE images or cannot boot tftp at all (implemented
but essentially broken) - These proms are rare but happen to come
up regularly - There is a "mopd" for linux available somewhere and i
managed to get it running some months ago although i personally
dont need it - But i had no clue how a mop image must look like (Special
header).
