5. Network files system
The Client requests to mount NFS is a big topic there is a HOWTO and two mini Howto's. first you need to create a copy of your current system under /tftpboot ken has written two scripts that do all your work, I called them makefirst and makecopy. my first client takes 20-30mb and the copy less. I used du -h to look for large unnecesary files. see etherboot-4.2/doc/html/diskless-5.html the following seem to me to be the critical files here
5.1 server specific
