Unfortunately, it is not that simple:
(From rpld-1.7/README:)
RPLD implements the IBM RIPL protocol, used to network boot some machines. It DOES NOT implement the Novell style RPL/IPX protocol. If your are not sure which protocol you are using see the section "Troubleshooting".
And, indeed, it does not work with Novell bootrom. If you have different version, please let me know... Pavel -- The best software in life is free (not shareware)!
