Network boot autoconfiguration sets default server to next server IP (siaddr) from BOOTP/DHCP reply, but manual configuration using net_bootp exports only server name. Unfortunately semantic of server name is not clearly defined. BOOTP RFC 951 defines it only for client request, and DHCP RFC 1541 only mentions it, without any implied usage. It looks like this field is mostly empty in server replies. Export next server IP as net_<interface>_next_server variable. This allows grub configuration script to set $root/$prefix based on information obtained by net_bootp. Reported and tested by: Nikunj A Dadhania <nikunj@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Cc: nikunj@linux.vnet.ibm.com v2: change variable name to net_<interface>_next_server as discussed on the list |

This is GRUB 2, the second version of the GRand Unified Bootloader. GRUB 2 is rewritten from scratch to make GNU GRUB cleaner, safer, more robust, more powerful, and more portable. See the file NEWS for a description of recent changes to GRUB 2. See the file INSTALL for instructions on how to build and install the GRUB 2 data and program files. Please visit the official web page of GRUB 2, for more information. The URL is <http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/grub.html>. More extensive documentation is available in the Info manual, accessible using 'info grub' after building and installing GRUB 2. There are a number of important user-visible differences from the first version of GRUB, now known as GRUB Legacy. For a summary, please see: info grub Introduction 'Changes from GRUB Legacy'
