FAI beginners questions

Hi,

my FAI client boots from floppy, but fails to find it's bootserver and
rootserver.  Instead, I see 255.255.255.255 for those, before the kernel
panics.  How can I tell the FAI client (or better: configure the floppy)
to use the right bootserver and rootserver?  Note: I'm not allowed to
set up a DHCP server in my companies network, nor any other services
that might interfere with other LAN devices.  I'm sure, I missed sth.
in the docu or so, but what?

Thanks in advance!

Cheers, WB
