This page describes booting one
ViewStation from another which has a hard disk drive installed.
For External Booting and File Service
Other ViewStations can use the HDSware installed on another
ViewStation with a hard disk installed by specifying the HDSware
location as the disk-equipped ViewStation's IP address as the HDSware
host and /dev/flash as the HDSware directory. This permits
booting, client loading, font loading, etc. to run from a ViewStation
instead of a host computer.
These external ViewStations should use a normal configuration
file, /HDSware/hds-fx/config/config.fx, not the config.fx.dsk
file.
