Diskless Nodes

[Kevin Morland <kmorland@yahoo.com>]

Hello, 

I have a project that I have to figure out.

Project: Diskless nodes
1)Support for clients, with-out any hard-disk, attain
kernel and NFS shares by NIC.
2)Run X-Windows System on all clients.
3)Support for about 20 to 40 concurrent clients.
4)Have ethernet 100baseT switched network.

Any suggestions, howto's, knowledge would be greatly
help-full.  Partically, the clients directory and file
structure on the server.  I have no problems booting
the kernel from the client, problems ocurr when NFS
comes into play.  Also, having problems on how to deal
with clients swap.

Should I run swap over NFS, swap on server for client,
etc...

Thanks,
Kevin Morland
