I am using Netboot. It works nice but if you want swap on local disk and local temp the configuration is a little complicated. There is also dosboot. I did try it, but I do not understand how it should be used. It could not find root device. There was some instruction to define kernel root or something lkike that what does that mean? Could it be possible to have root fs in DOS or same root in NFS as netboot-users have? Seppo -- +-- Seppo Kallio ----- kallio@jyu.fi ---+ ! Computing Center !
