      Just a warning, It appears the upgrade to 2.1 loses the ip of the next-server thus breaking network boot setups. it remembers to be enabled, and it remembers the filename you gave it… but your network clients are going to be looking at you with a derp face because they don't know what ip they are supposed to talk to.
