====== Create an appliance running OpenWRT serving gpxelinux.0 ======

Edit the file /etc/init.d/dnsmasq to add the right location and arguments:

  start() {
    include /lib/network
    scan_interfaces
    config_load /var/state/network
    config_load dhcp
  #      args=""
    args=" --enable-tftp --tftp-root=/mnt/usbdrive --dhcp-boot=/mnt/usbdrive/pxelinux.0"

Then type the following commands on the command line:

  root@OpenWrt:~# uci set dhcp.dnsmasq.enable_tftp=1
  root@OpenWrt:~# uci set dhcp.dnsmasq.tftp_root=/mnt/usbdrive
  root@OpenWrt:~# uci set dhcp.dnsmasq.dhcp_boot=/mnt/usbdrive/pxelinux.0
  root@OpenWrt:~# uci commit dhcp
  root@OpenWrt:~# /etc/init.d/dnsmasq restart

====== Todo ======

  * Rewrite this howto with more precision (step by step)
  * Provide a binary version of pxelinux.0
  * Mention which version of Kamikaze was used
  * Make an ipk package with gpxelinux.0 inside
