DHCP is the standard way to boot diskless clients, yes. An alternative is to load the kernel locally, but having the rest (NFS root and display managers/applications) served from a LTSP server. The kernel can be loaded from a floppy or from a local harddisk. Not quite diskless though. -- Hans Ekbrand
