They sound similiar. Google reveals that what I was thinking of was Jumpstart, which is the solaris approach to all this. I think the FAI stuff will work with remote boot roms on the network cards if you want to do that, too. I don't have any info but I think FAI is fairly immature. I just prefer a small system which makes it easy to install what you want rather than a big one where you have to remove stuff. I dunno. Michael
