My dhcp server runs on my auth server. So when my terminals
DHCP they get their kernel from the auth server. auth gets
its own kernel from its local disk but boots with a grungy
bootargs line like:
il -g 192.168.123.254 ether /net/ether0 192.168.123.98 255.255.255.0 0
\
192.168.123.99 192.168.123.98
where .98 is auth and .99 is the FS so auth gets its filesystem
from the FS. Auth still has a full filesystem on its disk just
in case FS goes away.
My core cpu server boots via a floppy into dhcp and gets its
kernel from auth, but doesn't run dhcp itself by using a switch
in cpurc.
