NAME
     bootparams - boot parameter data base

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION
     The bootparams file contains the list of client entries that diskless
     clients use for booting.  For each diskless client the entry should
     contain the following information:

          name of client
          a list of keys, names of servers, and pathnames.

     The first item of each entry is the name of the diskless client. The
     subsequent item is a list of keys, names of servers, and pathnames.

     Items are separated by TAB or SPACE characters. Any text after the #
     character is ignored.
