For the past serveral months I've been getting a blank boot menu and occasional issues with the site loading. Is anyone else experencing this?

Same, I have been successful in loading the netbootme.kpxe through net booting but if I press a key I get a prompt to enter a password which I have no idea what that is.  I tried 3 times in a row and on the third try I finally received the expected purple live os tools prompt as shown on the netbootme.me website.  I'm certain it has something to do with my dns configuration using dnsmasq.  I am using the tftp host method through openwrt.  TFTP is definitely not a reliable for booting off of the net but it is really cool.

Looks like they're still down http://isup.me/netboot.me

Guess I'll have to release my fork of the project once I get back from Defcon this year. 


So, with that announcement, dapla.net would be offering netboot images of arch linux, chaos linux,  freebsd, tiny core, and debian netinstaller initially. If there is other images you would like to see, please post here or tweet me @denzuko.
