+This code was originaly from FreeBSD and then the Linux folks greatly
+enhanced its functionality and capabilities.  It tftp's the kernel 
+and boots it.  It also has a menu capability.  The only bad part is
+that it needs to be built in an Linux environment and needs my patch
+to linux_devel to run "brandelf" on static executables.  Without this
+patch the intermediate static files will not run.
+
+.rom & .com images are built in work/etherboot/src-32.  Edit "Config"
+in that directory for more features.
+
+Note this is a memory corruption issue when I pre-populate the bootinfo
+structure I need to look at it more.
+
+Here is a sample dhcpd.conf entry for isc-dhcp.
