Try out thinstation.sf.net. It's pretty amazing stuff... I'm ditching
my hand-rolled diskless distro once I've ironed out all the thinstation
deployment problems.
The other thing I'll be demoing is etherbooting with a bios mod. I have
an onboard NIC which does not have an eprom/flash socket. I've modified
the (AMI) bios to include etherboot and it works like a charm.
Etherboot can also be loaded into Award bios based machines. Please
don't try this at home... I harmed a motherboard in my adventures and
have some stories to tell.
