Accept IK terminal hostname from DHCP/DNS server
------------------------------------------------
Inside the IK diskless terminal chroot you find an
/etc/hostname file.
With some DHCP/DNS setups the hostname gets set during
PXE boot and if /etc/hostname is missing, the hostname
will be kept as is.
If you want to use that feature:
$ ik_shell
(chroot)$ rm -f /etc/hostname
(chroot)$ exit
Generic Linux networks (isc-dhcp-server, bind):
-----------------------------------------------
ToDo. Anyone can give good information on how to setup
the DHCP/DNS services to make that work?
Debian Edu
----------
In Debian Edu networks you can remove /etc/hostname inside the
chroot and then the hostname gets set during PXE boot.
Windows DHCP server
-------------------
By default, the Windows DHCP server does not provide a hostname
via PXE boot. So, in this case you should keep /etc/hostname.
