Is it possible? Yes, there is a section in the HandBook for running diskless: http://www.freebsd.org/handbook/handbook206.html#462 Also, check the list archives (http://www.freebsd.org/search.html#mailinglists) for such topics -- this kind of setup was discussed many times, with many good suggestions (i.e.: sharing /, /usr, etc...). Also look in /sys/i386/boot/{bios|net|dos}boot. -- -[ Philippe Regnauld / sysadmin / regnauld@deepo.prosa.dk / +55.4N +11.3E ]- «Pluto placed his bad dog at the entrance of Hades to keep the dead IN and the living OUT!
