Winkler) Followup-To: Distribution: world Organization: Columbia University Keywords: We have a number of people interested in buying machines. Typically they can afford the basic unit, but the cost of a disk pushes them over the edge. Anyone know about third party disks? Ones that can fit inside would be nice, any thoughts would be helpful. Also, is there some way to eliminate all the duplication in the server disk for all the diskless clients? It would be ideal to be able to stick all the custom stuff, and /usr/users files on the swap disks. Can this be done? Is it a good idea?
