[gPXE-devel] Integrate lighthttpd into etherboot

[Lap Ngo Doan]

Hi Oliver,
Thank for you answer.
>>What kind of information  do you want to get from a running
lighttpd-Server on gpxe?
Coreboot is a Free Software project aimed at replacing the proprietary BIOS
(firmware) found in most computers. coreboot performs a little bit of
hardware initialization and then executes additional boot logic, called a
payload.
Unfortunately, coreboot doesn't support user interface to change some
setting on BIOS (for example: enable/disable disk, boot devices priority...)
I want to get/set some hardware parameters like BIOS provide by adding
Etherboot as a payload of coreboot.

>>What do you want to do with this else, which cant be done by a webserver
on a running linux-system?
I want to get/set some hardware parameters over the network on HTTP before
the running linux-system.
It mean that, this utility is on ROM
