>From my point of view, no network, no cluster. As a consequence, I always boot from the network. It gives you the maximum flexibility as you can still boot from hard drive (second boot device so if there is no ankswer for PXE it will just boot from hard disk). You can control everything from the master node (ie boot network (diskless/systemless), reinstall hard disk, boot hard disk) without moving from your chair ;-))) > My ideal configuration always was a netboot with a local disk for a cache FS > and a scratch area.
