I think there already is a doc/howto on the topic of diskless gentoo, |
| 21 |
I remember skimming it quickly several months ago. Check it out in |
| 22 |
the docs area of the gentoo web. |
| 23 |
|
| 24 |
There has been some discussion about this before on this list, forums |
| 25 |
and elsewhere, check it out. I think gmane.org archives gentoo's |
| 26 |
lists? |

I've been using this technique for a couple of years. Gentoo + |
| 29 |
openmosix + diskless nodes with a single system image. I'm clustering |
| 30 |
servers, desktops, compute nodes and all together on the same |
| 31 |
cluster, and the same way. |
| 32 |
Works really well, so I can really recommend it. |
