Sorry, I realized I left some of that out.

I've got a SPARC IPX with a 4x Toshiba external SCSI on it. The hard drive
is a 2+ gig, about 1400 meg free.

The problem with a netinstall is that it's at home, just standalone. I could
bring it to work and hook it up but we've only got Wintel boxes .. though
there is a Linux box or two I could access. But no Sun boxes.

There's a fine line between courage and
foolishness.  Too bad it's not a fence.
