But bootp is mostly used by thin clients... not workstations, I doubt you'll 
want to admin this from the GUI. But why not... it's only a supplementary 
method (even if it sounds useless in KNetworkConf).

Putting this in a combobox is a very good solution to add bootp...
If bootp stays in KNetworkConf it's IMHO the best solution.
