They are currently running sunos 4.1.1, currently there is only disks on one machine, the other 3 boot over the network. I have them booting fine under sunos, I want have a look at NetBSD, and at the moment I can get no further than tftping and then running the netboot program. (it requests its IP address and then just sits and waits) I can find no doco's on setuping up a diskless client, only on booting via the net to install NetBSD on the local hdd. can anyone shed some light on whats wrong? etc Thanks.. Andrew
