Hi,
Section "19.7.1.6 Configuring Swap", on diskless operation, has a mistake,
that drove me almost crazy. It says there:
----------------------------------------------------------------
/etc/bootptab would use the following syntax instead:
T128="192.168.4.4:/netswapvolume/netswap":T129=64000
----------------------------------------------------------------
The T129 here is totally wrong, because this T129 is a syntax error and stops
bootpd from working properly!
The syntax for Tn tag is something like:
n is an RFC1084 vendor field tag number [...] The generic data may be
represented as either a stream of hexadecimal numbers or as a quoted string
of ASCII characters.
So the second line above should be replaced by:
T128="192.168.4.4:/netswapvolume/netswap":T129=0000fa00
Can someone fix this in the handbook?
Thanks,
Rob.
