Any interest in some network changes

[Damian Ivereigh]

Hi guys,

I am considering making two changes to the DHCP/BOOTP code and I am
wondering if anyone has already done it and if not whether patches would
be accepted to the main grub code. I need to do this anyway, but if
there is no interest I won't bother to do it in a tidy manner. The
changes are:-

1) Actually make bootp and dhcp do different things, instead of just
aliases for each other. As an initial pass, using bootp would be the
same as if the code had been compiled with NO_DHCP_SUPPORT turned on.

2) Allow the specification of a vendor class identifier on the command
line, such that dhcp servers could behave differently for different
clients.
