Any idea on how long the wait will be for network installs
for storm? I've currently got storm running on my
workstation and am pleased as punch with it. However, I'm
buying an old, outdated laptop (a NEC Versa 486) to have
something that I can work on during my daily commute (don't
worry I take the bus).
I'd like to install storm on it, but the only current
install method I'm aware of is from cd. I read the
cdrom=/dev/hdb trick a few posts back, but that won't help
me. Ideally I'd like to be able to install over a serial or
parallel connection to my desktop.
Does anyone have any ideas on what dist might be good since
Storm doesn't support this yet?
