Name

       a2boot — Apple II netboot server daemon

Synopsis

       a2boot [-d] [-n nbpname]

       a2boot [-v | -V]

Description

       a2boot  is  a  netboot server for Apple IIe and IIGS computers. It allows compatible clients to boot into
       ProDOS or GS/OS over an AppleTalk network. This is  functionally  comparable  to  the  Apple  II  netboot
       software included in early versions of AppleShare File Server for Macintosh.

       When running, the daemon will create the following hard-coded AFP volumes.

       • Apple //e Boot

       • Apple //gs

       • ProDOS16 Image

       These volumes need to be populated with the appropriate ProDOS or GS/OS system files in order to function
       as boot volumes. For more information, see the documentation for AppleShare File Server for Macintosh.

Options

       -d

              Debug mode, i.e. don’t disassociate from controlling TTY.

       -n nbpname

              Register this server as nbpname. This defaults to the hostname.

       -v | -V

              Print version information and exit.
