[comp.sys.sun] Running diskless VAXstation from Sun

mc@moc.jpl.nasa.gov (Mike Caplinger) (11/29/90)

This is probably a naive question, but is there a simple way to run a
diskless VAXstation using a Sun as a file server?  The VAX is running
Ultrix 3.0, presently served by a MicroVAX II.  I assume the hard part is
getting the machine booted, since the rest of it is just standard NFS.

I expect that Sun and possibly DEC has an unbundled software product to do
this, but I am trying to do it fast and cheap.

Please mail me directly, as it takes forever for digests to come out and
I'm in a hurry.
