Newbie Questions

Hi,
	Im to new to all this. First would like to say yay it works!!! Now for 
the
questions.... I had to make a custom kernel to support my hardware and 
it worked
  when I try to boot the system with the following.

append ramdisk_size=16768 ro video=vesa vga=771 console=null 
initrd=pxes-0.6.initrd root=/dev/ram

however when I tried to boot with write access (ro changed to rw) the 
system dies with Cant find DHCP server
and cant initialize eth0......

My other questions.... How would one go about mapping SMB drives? for 
instance I have a RH9 server set up,
from my workstation I can simply do
mount -t smbfs -o username=*******,password****** 
//192.168.0.10/tftpboot /mnt/pxesbootland

however PXES doesn't seem to support that method it dies with "no such 
device" error.....Is there a way to implement
  mounting this way? And lastly kind of a shot in left field...any one 
out there using WINE with there diskless thinclient? Or
does anyone have a suggestion on how to install the WINE package into a 
PXES linux distro?

Thanx a bunch

-Alex

PS - What Im attempting to do is get a Lightwave Screamer net render 
farm to run on a diskless render farm.
And wanna on the things Lightwave is picky about is using mapped 
drives, and it only runs in windows... hence
the use of wine. I have this hole thing working/tested on my RH9 
system, now its just a matter of reproducing it in
PXES..... Thanx again, and sorry bout all the questions! ;)
