I'm having trouble installing Win3 on a PC, using an NFS-mounted drive as my system disk. Windows will support Novell, 3-Com, etc. Alas, no NFS. Niether Microsoft or Sun had any suggestions. I'm effectively trying to set up a diskless workstation. After booting from floppy, I copy all pertinent binaries to a RAMDISK and start NFS. At this point I attempt to install windows on a mounted NFS drive, with no success. Thanks for any input, daleh@sequent.com
