One option here is to use iPXE ( <a href="http://www.ipxe.org/" target="_blank">http://www.ipxe.org/</a> ) to grab the
netboot files via HTTP (or some other protocol) instead of relying
on TFTP. There's some extra configuration work here, but serving up
the 365KB iPXE image to clients via TFTP is a lot less work then
serving up the entire kernel/initrd package.<br>

<p dir="ltr">I have a project where I use dnsmasq for netboot

overtaxing dnsmasq's TFTP capabilities? Does dnsmasq use threads
or multiprocessing for TFTP transfers?</p>
