actually, i was thinking something very similar.

i was gonna cheat though, and model the kit after the Xkernel i'm using
from columbia.edu that bases itself on sunos.

i have several 3/60's here which boot entirely off the network without need
of swap.  it is amazing how far you can push a 3/50 or 3/60 with 4 meg of RAM.
