+== Booting by pressing 'N' ==
+
+    It's hard to configure DHCP for booting Mac by pressing 'N', or from
+multiboot menu. But it isn't impossible. You need new DHCP server, and
+some options in config I don't really unredstand. Here goes working example:
+
+| ddns-update-style		none;
+| 
+| option domain-name		"domain.here";
+| option domain-name-servers	192.168.0.1;
+| 
+| authoritative;
+| 
+| # Mac NetBoot Options
+| #  (these require dhcpd 3.0+)
+| option mac-nc-client-unknown code 220 = string;
+| option mac-nc-client-id code 221 = string;
+| option mac-version code 230 = string;
+| option mac-username code 232 = text;
+| option mac-password code 233 = text;
+| option mac-nb-img code 234 = string;
+| option mac-apps-img code 235 = string;
+| option mac-machine-name code 237 = text;
+| option mac-client-nb-img code 238 = string;
+| 
+| subnet 192.168.0.0 netmask 255.255.255.0 {
+| 	option routers			192.168.0.1;
+| 	option subnet-mask		255.255.255.0;
+| 	
+| 	option nis-domain		"domain.name";
+| 	
+| 	option time-offset		-1;
+| 	option ntp-servers		some.time.server;
+| 	
+| 	default-lease-time 21600;
+| 	max-lease-time 43200;
+| 	
+| 	host mymac {
+| 		filename "/ppc/bootinfo.txt";
+| 		server-name "server";
+| 		next-server 192.168.0.1;
+| 		
+| 		hardware ethernet 00:11:24:00:00:00;
+| 		fixed-address 192.168.0.2;
+| 		
+| 		option dhcp-max-message-size 576;
+| 		option dhcp-parameter-request-list
+| 			1, # subnet mask
+| 			3, # routers
+| 			220, 221, 230, 232, 233, 234,
+| 			235, 236, 237, 238; # mac options

+| 		option mac-version 0:0:0:0;
