Re: downloading image without PB?

NK.bin contains all the information needed to launch the os. A couple
of things to note:
1.Eboot actually implements a tftp server, so you'd want to run a tftp
client.
2 Eboot waits for a "PUT" of "boot.bin" so you'd have to rename
"nk.bin" to "boot.bin"
3 Eboot listens on port 980 which is not the default TFTP port. Set the
client to use port 980 before downloading (which i beleave you cannot
do with tftp.exe)
4 After the image has been loaded, eboot waits for a "jump" command
from PB to launch the image so you'd have to modify this behaviour _if_
you want the image to automatically launch after the tftp-download.
