I guess my "Universal Boot Floppy" thread was similar to this one... so
I'll pipe in here too.
If I can get the universal network card etherboot image thing to work
from the hard drive, and use g4u to image it quickly over the network --
I'll be happy to have the floppy available for use on the remote terminals.
That said, I HATE floppy drives, but even just for proof of concept
it'll be nice to get going. I haven't had time yet to do more research
on converting the .dsk file into a .zlilo file... More later if I
figure it out. I'll happily post the g4u image file for everyone to use
once I get it working. It should be very painless to clone fast.
