Hello everybody,                

we want to BOOT our Macintosh Computers from a central server.  
All Mac+s are connected to an Ethernet LAN.
The proplem is that our Macintosh Computers are really DISKLESS - 
this means that the have no hard disk and NO FLOPPY DISK inside.

I know that you can boot MS/DOS machines with an BOOT-ROM on your
Ethernet Interface. Is this service available for Mac+s too?

Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you in advance.
