I want to enable the both. But I didn't have the idea how to decide
the protocol TFTP or NFS.

I can't find out the such keyword in the manual of dhcpd.conf.
Otherwise, to use the new environment variable like "autoload-nfs"
or "autoload-protocol" to decide the protocol.
Does anyone have the idea ?
