I think the main difference is that ML answers are given late at night, with late-at-night moods (and tiredness), for better or worse :-). > > ObLinux: how do I share easily an entire machine's hard disk with > other machines?

For example, I run some machines with nfsroot, so exporting their *physical* disk is trivial. Do you refer to a physical disk, all the local partitions, all mounted FSs (including /proc, nfs)? What problems did NFS exporting / cause? Did you try the usermode nfs server? (from <ftp://linux.mathematik.tu-darmstadt.de/pub/linux/people/okir>. Not maintained for a long time, but still might be useful). Did mount --bind somewhere and NFS exporting it didn't work either? Note I didn't try this myself, but writing this answer makes me want to try (for diskless machines' server - I currently do not share its "/"). > -- > Muli Ben-Yehuda > syscalltrack hacker-at-large > Didi ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
