Eric & all,
I'll be willing to help test if someone develop something :-)

I have some halfbred ideas how I would go about it. I wanted to tackle this
for a long time, but alas, my gateway runs and I somehow hoped someone else
would implement it without breaking the init stuff. My idea was to run the
package download at init level 2 just after the network is up,
...that would be a VERRY good thing :-)
Best regards

Hi Jacques/Lynn
Hi Jacques/Lynn
I was wondering if we could do some kind of hybrid set up which would fetch
packages from a server (whatever method) after booting from floppy. I
believe it should be possible to start a minimal LEAF installation, get up
the NIC's and then load the big packages from the network.

Great! Scratch tha
I have worked on a pxe.lrp package that is allowing booting Bering with a PXE
enabled NIC.
Walter Cardwell has been very helpful in challenging me on this idea.
I was also inspired by the scp backup scripts from Erich
Basically you can know boot Bering from a tftp server and bacup your packages
