I've supported a few kiosk operations that use either some rendition of Windows or AppleMac equivalents ..... none of them has proven to be anywhere near reliable. I managed to get Windows running off a CD (with a small hard drive for swap space) but there's gotta be a better way !!! ----- Original Message ----- From: "David Thiel" <dthiel@nexprise.com> To: <freebsd-questions@FreeBSD.ORG> Sent: Thursday, December 21, 2000 8:46 AM Subject: custom bootable cd crisis > Hi all, > > I know some folks who have gotten a rather big contract to set up a number > of kiosks for a library - currently they're using RedHat, because they could > easily find instructions for making a bootable CD with a working OS on it. > However, I don't intend on letting anyone I know use RedHat 7.0 if at all > possible.
