Has anyone succeeded in getting a mostly- or entirely- NFS-based
installation working?  That is, anyone running out of a little tiny
hard drive partition with the rest of the filesystem over NFS?  This
would make installation much more convenient for many people ---
especially if the PC could be entirely diskless.

Alternatively, has anyone set up a Debian GNU/Hurd install out of a
disk file or out of some directory in a GNU/Linux installation?  I
have heard that such things are possible...

Thanks,
