grub netboot - (nd) drive absent

[Patrick Mahoney]

Hello list,

I'm trying to load a kernel on a machine from another via grub's
netboot.

I followed the docs instructions and went to the point of having an ip
addressed to my destination machine via dhcp. Thing is... I have no
(nd) drive. The doc says to 'kernel (nd)/tftp/blablabla', but all i
have are the standard devices (fd0, hd0, etc...).

The doc says to use 'device' command on grub's command line tool to
add a device this way: 'device <drive> <file>' ... but what file
(/dev/???) do i link to the nd device? AFAIK, my NIC has no file in
/dev/.

Thanks for your help,
