Diskless workstations

[Cirvam]

Hello, I'm setting up a cluster of IBM PS/2 on a Token Ring network. I would like to have all of the computers boot off of one main computer. I have tried BOOTP and Root-NFS mount however they both hang when I boot off the configured floppy and can't find the init. The kernel doesn't seem network aware at all however I have tried specifying all sorts of stuff for the append statement in lilo.
So is there any easy way to boot diskless workstations and if so where can I find a good guide?

Thanks

Try the following for information:

1

http://www.slug.org.au/diskless.html

2

http://www.linuxdoc.org/HOWTO/Diskless-HOWTO.html

I have only had to do this on one machine about 12 months ago, and most of my information came from these 2 places... I no longer need the diskless w/s so it is no longer maintained...

Hope this helps...
