not clear from the man page, but is there a way to configure /etc/dhcpd.conf to have separate hosts for both the NFS-mountable root filesystem, and the downloadable boot image?
more generally, just how thoroughly can you segregate
- the host providing DHCP service
- the host providing the boot image
- the host providing the NFS-mountable root FS?
Putting NFS on another box is no hassle. When you do a network install via NFS just specify the host of your choice or put it in the kickstart file.
As far as seperating DHCP and the boot image (TFTP) I have never tried but I think you need to use a DHCP proxy. Anyboby tried this before?
