Trivial! Install your normal hard-disk system eg redhat get a lilo image for your network card from www.rom-o-matic.net install the image in /boot and add an entry (like the ones there already) to boot the rom image in lilo.conf or in grub.conf. Don't bother with any initrd entries. Boot -> menu-option -> linux or -> netboot James ------------------------------------------------------- This sf.net email is sponsored by:ThinkGeek Welcome to geek heaven. http://thinkgeek.com/sf _____________________________________________________________________ Ltsp-discuss mailing list.
