[Trinux-talk] Trinux as DR NS

[Oxenreider, J. <jo...@sa...>]

I'm looking at using Trinux as a Disaster Recovery OS for our offsite DR
testing, however, what I've been unable to do is find out if and how one
disables IDE/NET loading of additional packages.  What I want is to be able
to pull out two floppy disks, pop it into a system at our off site facility
and bring up my name server.  

The system boots up, sees the NIC and assigns it the IP address/hostname
that I need it to, but immediately tries to load packages from the network
instead of asking me for additional floppies.  

I've looked through the Trinux site and read the FAQ/instruction pages, but
nothing is mentioned about this particular scenario. 

Thank you for your time and consideration.
