AFAIK, NBI (Etherboot) support has been broken for years:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ltsp/+bug/487826
I want to remove all of the NBI code from ltsp-trunk, so I'm proposing
this commit:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~alkisg/+junk/ltsp/revision/2500
This touches files like dhcpd.conf from all distros, so please stop me
from committing it if NBI images still work for you.
As for a workaround,
* I think some etherboot clients support booting from pxelinux.0 (I
had this in mind in the planned commit),
* While for older etherboot clients that don't support pxelinux.0,
someone that has such a client should create an ipxe.nbi wrapper, post
it to our wiki and document how to change dhcpd.conf to boot from that.
I'll wait for a few days for feedback; if there's none, I'll go ahead
and push.
Cheers,
Alkis
