I suspect that the floppy drivers could be tweaked so that they would
only eject the disk when a special piece of software asked them to.
This would allow the effect of diskless booting, at the expense of a
floppy drive (cheaper than an 80-meg hard drive, anyway). This will
bring up the regular Mac OS, but not having used A/UX, I don't know
if one could cram enough onto a floppy to bring it up remotely.
