My typical way to do his is find my latest dump(s) on tape or elsewhere - chuck them on an nfs server accesible to the machine to be restored, boot from bsd.rd, mount the nfs location with the dump files and proceed.
That's why I'd *like* to do, but I don't have 'mount_nfs' on my bsd.rd. I'm guessing you are using a non-i386 bsd.rd, right? The FAQ at http://www.openbsd.org/faq/faq4.html#InstMedia mentions that "the OpenBSD/i386 platform does not support NFS installs", so I guess a i386 cd40.iso image will not ne NFS-capable, and therefore NFS is not an option for me. Makes sense, right? At least, as Michal suggested I could use FTP. -Martin -- "Suburbia is where the developer bulldozes out the trees, then names the streets after them." --Bill Vaughan
