Yeah, that's one option, but I disregarded it as it is a poor solution.
I made 1 floppy disk linux boxes before, but as I suggested ppl want
something that works within a reasonable time, not something that
requires you to hack up the sony LILO, boot from memcard and then mount
your NFS server you got ready before :)

*We* should be aiming for our own GPL bootloader that supports booting
from USB(pc), memcard, USB ethernet, and HDD, unless everyone wants to
use your NFS approach? Otherwise everyone will remain dependent on
Sony's propriety elements. Rather like developing Linux on a Sun machine
:)

With the closed src Naplink available that gives you some options
(limited) plink by ps2dev.sourceforge.net (AKA Legal.Link) *should* be
released one day soon as well.
