I have modified the NFS-Root module to use both RARP and BOOTP for
address discovery. If anyone wants to test the patch, it's available
on ftp://k332.feld.cvut.cz/pub/local/mj/linux/root-nfs-patch-2.0.gz.
There is also an enhanced BOOTP server offering some new BOOTP options
and working on ARCnet: ftp://k332.feld.cvut.cz/pub/local/mj/linux/
bootpd*. Please send all suggestions and bug reports to mj@k332.feld.cvut.cz.
Thanks
