hi,
is it possible for me to have a big drive on a machine acting as a server
with the following partions:
/
/home
/usr
and another machine that only has / but is configured to use the 1st machine
so that:
/ on #2
/home on #1
/usr on #1
if so how can I do this?
thanks,
jack saunders

Ultimately, that's probably what you'd want to do. But you can also
use boot floppies or a very small amount of hard disk space to emulate
a bootable NIC.

Look at the home pages for Etherboot and Netboot. One or both will
have links to bootable floppy images you can try out.
