hmm... network booting? network mounting? install packages once on |
15 |
one system, share them with everyone. Share passwd/shadow files and |
16 |
the like manually, or symlink them to skeletal versions symlinked to |
17 |
somewhere that can be obscured and replaced by a network boot. you |

could even boot them from thumb drives or cds. |
