1.1       root        1: ROM-o-matic web interface for building iPXE ROMs
                      2: ------------------------------------------------
                      3: 
                      4: This web application generates iPXE images and sends them to a web
                      5: browser.
                      6: 
                      7: Available as part of the iPXE source code distribution, which can be
                      8: downlaoded from http://etherboot.org/

                     13:          Please send support questions to the iPXE mailing list
                     14: 
                     15: System Requirements
                     16: -------------------
                     17: - Apache web server
                     18: - PHP 4+
                     19: - Tools required to build iPXE installed on the server
                     20:   - gcc, mtools, syslinux, perl, etc.
                     21: 
                     22: Setup
                     23: -----
                     24: As distributed, it is expected that the rom-o-matic source code
                     25: directory is in the contrib directory of a iPXE source distribution.
                     26: 
                     27: The easiest way to do this is to simply put a iPXE source distribution
                     28: in a web server accessible directory.
                     29: 
                     30: If this is not the case, you will need to either edit the file
                     31: 
                     32:     "globals.php"
                     33: 
                     34: or create a file called
                     35: 
                     36:     "local-config.php"
                     37: 
                     38: containing the following lines:
                     39: 
                     40: <?php
                     41: $src_dir = "../../src";
                     42: ?>
                     43: 
                     44: Then change the line beginning "$src_dir = " to the path of your iPXE
                     45: source code tree.
                     46: 
                     47: To make build times shorter, before you run rom-o-matic for the first time
                     48: you should cd to the ipxe "src" directory and enter the following
                     49: commands:
                     50: 
                     51:   $ make
                     52:   $ make bin/NIC
                     53: 
                     54: This will pro-compile most object files and will make your rom-o-matic
                     55: builds much faster.
                     56: 
                     57: Running rom-o-matic from a web browser
                     58: --------------------------------------
                     59: Enter a URL like:
                     60: 
                     61:    http://example.com/ipxe-1.x.x/contrib/rom-o-matic
