+NetWinders have two network interfaces: The 10Mbps NE2000-compatible
+card is <filename>eth0</filename> and the 100Mbps Tulip card is
+<filename>eth1</filename>.

+
+You need NeTTrom 2.2.1 or later to boot the
+installation system. NeTTrom 2.3.3 is recommended: get these files
+from

+After rebooting and interrupting the boot process during the countdown, you
+must first configure the network either with a static address:
+<informalexample><screen>
+
+ NeTTrom command-> setenv eth0_ip 192.168.0.10/24
+
+</screen></informalexample>
+where 24 is the number of set bits in the netmask, or a dynamic address:
+<informalexample><screen>
+
+ NeTTrom command-> boot diskless
+
+</screen></informalexample>
+
+</para><para>
+
+You may also need to configure the <userinput>route1</userinput>
+settings if the TFTP
+server is not on the local subnet. The rest of the config is pretty
+standard (the save-all step is optional):
+<informalexample><screen>
+
+ NeTTrom command-> setenv kerntftpserver 192.168.0.1
+ NeTTrom command-> setenv kerntftpfile tftpboot.img
+ NeTTrom command-> save-all
+ NeTTrom command-> setenv netconfig_eth0 flash
+ NeTTrom command-> setenv kernconfig tftp
+
+</screen></informalexample>
+
+</para><para>
+
+Only the last two of these interfere with normal disk booting, so it is
+safe to <command>save-all</command> right before it, which will
+store the network settings in case you need to boot from the network
+again. Use the <command>printenv</command> command to review your
+environment settings. Finally, if your <envar>cmdappend</envar>
+NeTTrom variable has the <option>noinitrd</option> option (which is
+necessary to boot 2.4 kernels), you must remove it so the downloaded
+kernel can boot with its attached ramdisk.
