I will check them out...tho I think I may be back to the NFSroot idea...
just need to iron out those details.

of course...I can't format 3.5" disks at all now:
lenny:~# mke2fs /exports/spin/dev/fd0
mke2fs 1.10, 24-Apr-97 for EXT2 FS 0.5b, 95/08/09
end_request: I/O error, dev 02:00, sector 0
mke2fs: Device not configured while trying to determine filesystem size

hmm...I havn't tried much off floppies (excpet the base install) since
I droppe dthis machine...
