slightly unrelated :

     Myself and a friend did a fully network bootable SS20 yesterday with
NFS based everything. The backend server is FreeBSD with ZFS. Works like
a charm after one figures out the stuff needed in /tftpboot as well as
the dhcpd stuff. I am using one of the quad ethernet interfaces as the
bootable device and it runs fine with NFS over that same interface.

     Has anyone tried to bond interfaces together? I figure with LACP
bonding of all four qeX interfaces the thing would be just fine over the
NFS with *almost* reseonable performance. The internal disks currently
have Solaris 2.5.1 installed with the SUN PC card support. The machine
has the Intel i486 co-processor SBus module in there. That will never
ever work on anything after Solaris 2.5.1 most likely. Anyways it boots
and runs fine over the network and I only wish LACP was possible. Is it?
