 I just configured PXE booting/CentOS kickstarting off of my RT-N16 using TomatoUSB and Optware, any interest in a write up?

I know I would like to hear about it.

I wrote up a kludgy tutorial in the TomatoUSB forums. A lot of it is broken because I am a low karma user. For example, no URLs or screenshots.

:rolleye:

I will repost here with URL corrections and better formatting sometime this week.

Funny story - during the final steps of testing the config there was a typo in the /opt/tftpboot/default configuration file and it took the router down until I turned off the machine that was PXE booting.
