« on: February 02, 2004, 04:07:52 AM »
Are there cards that support this: Booting from a drive in another machine?

Cheers

Thanks for the replies guys.

So booting off a floppy disk looks to be the answer.
Will I have trouble fitting all the necessary on a floppy disk?

I suppose if I got an X-surf I could attach a CF to one of the IDE connectors, and store the TCP/IP stack etc on there to be accessed after a basic startup from the floppy.

Ah, but older zorro II machines don't have the IDE bus unfortunately :-(
