I was just thinking of ways to speed up installing FreeBSD on machines
that friends and colleagues pass on to me, and I wondered if BOOTP would
hold the key?

Is it possible to set a machine up to boot an installation from the
network, and then install itself unattended?

If it's not currently possible with the existing distribution, is it at
least possible at all?

Dont worry about rushing an answer, it's just a floating thought...
