Re: Added "stage2-diskless" build

[Christoph Plattner]

Yes, it is independent.

First, the patch for the preset menu does not include the
patch of the stage2-diskless (instead of the ChangeLog entry !!)

Second, the functionality is totally independent. The mini-patch
also building a stage2-diskless is in most cases for test purpose.
In this boot mode all the restrictions for diskless operation
should be present (like: not possible to save default menu entry),
and it automatically loads from the server the menu and other stuff.
Using the stage2 + preset menu calling "bootp --with-configfile",
than the diskless restrictions are not present !!

So at least it is used for test purpose and it is only one added
entry in the makefile.

With friendly regards
