<application>netabootwrap</application> merges <filename>net_aboot</filename>,
kernel and initrd
images to build the network bootable image for Linux/Alpha systems.
<filename>net_aboot.nh</filename> will not be usable but
<application>netabootwrap</application> has all
the functions. Without options, It'll look for <filename>vmlinux.gz</filename>
and build <filename>netboot.img</filename>, which is <filename>net_aboot</filename>
+ <filename>vmlinux.gz</filename>.

To actually use the image, you need a <application>tftpd</application>(8) server and a
<application>dhcp</application>(8) or <application>bootpd</application>(8)
server. You can find further details in the SRM-HOWTO:
(<ULink URL="http://www.alphalinux.org/faq/srm.html"></ULink> or in
