mini-debian system via network
Hello, I'm working on a network of computers with hard disks, but without any floppy nor CD-Rom drives, and I've installed them through the network (with some problems, but it finally works). In case of hard disk failure, I would like to be able to load a mini Debian system through the network to examine/repair in case of simple problems. I can do a big load at the boot of this mini-system, but due to technical constraints, i can't use a NFS exported partition (of a server) to realize it. I tried to build a system into the initrd, but it's quite big (~ 30 Mo) and it doesn't work [I don't know what is the limit of the initrd size ; didn't found anything about this on the web .. .any clue ?] Is anyone can give me some hints how to do this ? thanks, Fred. -- Frédéric Boiteux - Calistel -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
