Hello,

Today, I'm happy to present you the Debian package mknbi, which is part
of the admin section, and maintained by RISKO Gergely
<risko at debian.org>. 

This package contains : Create tagged images for Etherboot or Netboot.

With mknbi you can create tagged images for Etherboot. Tagged
images are data files, which contains the necessary files for
booting up (kernel+root for linux, kernel+minifs for dos, ...)
bundled together with a special format.

These tagged images are downloaded and understood by Etherboot
and Netboot during the boot process.

This package should be used on the server and not on the client.
It doesn't contain code which handle the network card, download the
image, etc.
