linux options

[numbnuts]

Working on this specific problem myself and having tried every possible iteration I can think of (or reference elsewhere on the web) between pxelinux (kernel/initrd with args and/or memdisk iso loading) and iPXE, I can't seem to get this to work either...

Seems to be made worse by the fact that the original kernel image doesn't (as a rule?) load with network support for i217 family chipset (for my application), outright killing the possibility of just throwing a fetch over http:// argument at it to get it to work (which does seem like it would work if the drivers were present...)

Short of rebuilding the initrd.img, I haven't found any other suggestions anywhere as a possible solution.

urgh.
