No it is possible to install tar the system and install it via sftp. You have to tar image of your system with with command tar -czvf system.tar.gz / then use a program virt-make-fs to make img ( http://libguestfs.org/virt-make-fs.1.html ) virt-make-fs system.tar.gz sysem.img put it on ftp server and then you have to boot using your NIC you have to set up dhcp server firs ( and sftpd too) then send this file over a network ( you can use broadcast to send it to 10 pc at one time ) you can do another thing if you want to for example use cd instead of network make a bootable pendrive with OpenBSD/FreeBSD/Linux and after you boot from it type dd if=sysem.img of=/dev/ad0 bs=512k after mounting your cd and going to appropriate directory you can put the img file on your flashdrive ( usb stick ) Pozdrawiam z Polski;) Tomasz Marszal > > Thanks, > Jay.
