thanks a lot, i just realized seeing the  'dhcp' line that i wanted to 
have  access to http to load the network configuration ... seems i would 
need to have a network configured BEFORE doing http access ...

so thanks a lot for the answer that just enlightened me without slapping 
me about the stupid goal i had in my tired mind :)

i guess i can embed a generic ip used just for this in the gpxe image 
and then load a new config from a script that will change the ip..humm 
got to try this.

regards,
Jean.
