Sorry to waste net.bandwidth, but I remember seeing someone post that there was a document available from IBM which better explained how to do network installations. Its title was something like "AIX, networking, life, the universe and everything" (I can't remember exactly; it was of that general archetype) We've got a SCSI-less rs/6000 and need to figure out how to put the install images on the tapes onto the net install server. The documentation in info is abysmal on this topic. Anyone remember that document's name? -- Matt Emerson matt@karazm.math.uh.edu

Pub Number GG24-3489 The draft title included "the universe and everything". Even without the title, it's an outstanding publication. -- Bob Shair shair@chgvmic1.vnet.ibm.com Scientific Computing Specialist SHAIR@UIUCVMD (bitnet) IBM Champaign
