** IA64 PXE Go For Launch **

Having had the time to do proper IA64 testing with elilo, Itanium
PXE support is now confirmed to work.  --pxe-arch and --pxe-address
must both be set on the IA64 system when it is created with cobbler.

Additional bugfixes have improved stability of the dhcpd.conf generation.

0.2.1

** New "enchant" feature **

Usage of "enchant" can install a profile on a remote system, even
if that system does not have the koan helper tool installed.
You'll need an IP or system name, a profile name, and the password
to the system.  See the manpage.

0.2.0

** New dhcp.conf templating and IA64 PXE features **

Cobbler now contains an experimental dhcpd.conf templating feature.
Read the manpage, and if you want to use it, back up your existing
dhcpd.conf before enabling that feature.  It is *OFF* by default.

When using that feature, dhcpd.conf can associate MAC addresses
with hostnames (as defined from cobbler), and cobbler can
also differentiate between IA64 and x86/x86_64 network boots.  Each
time cobbler sync is run, it will build a new dhcpd.conf based on
/etc/cobbler/dhcpd.template.

Cobbler is now packaging ELILO to enable IA64 booting.
