Building a BSD Netboot Server (O'ReillyNet)
In this O'ReillyNet article the author describes one method of
installing FreeBSD-5.2.1-Release as a server for diskless clients.
"As I've confined myself to a single alternative, it's important to
lay out some conditions. First, the method here differs from the canonical
version in the way it uses rc files in the FreeBSD distribution. For
example, diskless stations won't put their file systems in virtual memory;
instead, they will use NFS to mount file systems as read-only (/ and /usr)
and read-and-write (/etc and /var)."
