Actually, LTSP, Etherboot, Netboot, Rom-a-matic, and friends are pretty much obsolete now. With PXE support (ie. 3c905), you can boot and mount NFS root; after that, the client is looking at "normal" root tree as it would from local harddisk.
Incorrect. PXE is about getting a kernel loaded into memory, the same job and purpose as etherboot, netboot or romamatic. PXE facilitates LTSP it definitely does not obsolete it. -- Fraser Campbell <fraser-Txk5XLRqZ6CsTnJN9+BGXg at public.gmane.org> http://www.wehave.net/ Georgetown, Ontario, Canada Debian GNU/Linux -- The Toronto Linux Users Group.
