Create pristine filesystems (/ /usr /var /home etc) on the local HD. 2. Startup an NFS client to connect to a NFS server, and transfer over = .tar. files to rebuild the local filesystems? I know there is a list for FreeSBIE, but I am betting most of its users = are here....and that list is a little sparse. -Grant
