Hi developers,

based on the information Netboot install of your Gentoo Linux
alternative installation method HOWTO I have found a way how to
install gentoo on a computer that has no floppy nor a cdrom device
using netboot.

there are few people who might be interested in this, but if you are
interested, please read http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic.php?t=13506

it describes the way I started, which software I used and finally how I
solved the problem that had arised.

btw: why at all using a floppy with grub to use tftp if you don't need
that? ok, not all nics can do netboot...

regards,
Sascha aka khippy
