Re: [Aoetools-discuss] features in AoE target

[Smart <smart@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

As this is a kind of request for "goals" i just and plain state such 
here, despite that it is not a developing target as such. More a use case.

IMO diskless boot is a big thing, and for achieving such all the related 
components should get attention.

- Adding boot support for AoE in distros (i.e. i have built myself an 
initrd to boot from AoE via PXE)
- Perfect would be, if BIOSs would support booting from AoE (as has 
afaik recently be realized by AMI for iSCSI, AoE should be easier no ?), 
open BIOSs should get support. That way it should even be possible to 
boot MS Software from AoE.
- Getting AoE support into common NAS devices (especially bigger RAIDed 
ones)
