Well, if it's the ISC dhcpd, I have successfully used it with Etherboot
in both DHCP and backwards-compatibility BOOTP mode. The only reason
I haven't switched is inertia; I'll write a Perl script to convert my
bootptab one of these evenings. Oh yes, there was a bug in an earlier
release of DHCPD where it didn't send out the filename in BOOTP mode
but that was ages ago.
