syslinux command line?

[Cameron, Thomas]

Hi all -

We use Proliant servers with iLO boards.  Instead of setting up PXE or DHCP, or creating a new diskette image with a ks.cfg for each server, is there a way to set the ip address, netmask and gateway from the command line when syslinux comes up?

I am using:

linux text ks=nfs:192.168.1.1:/path/to/ks.cfg

Can you do something like this:

linux text ks=nfs:192.168.1.1:/path/to/ks.cfg,eth0=192.168.1.2,netmask=255.255.255.0,gateway=192.168.1.254

Thanks!
