right. sparc1.sil.at is the name of the client. terminal the name of the
nfs server and /opt/tftpboot/194.152.178.14/* the paths where the root
filesystem resides. be sure that you fill /etc/hosts on server AND on the
nfs-root-ed /etc/hosts for the client otherwhise the client will fail
to nfs-mount the thing. but thats all in the documentation.

ill mail you the installation guide with an attachment... just read the
section named ``Installing NetBSD by using a diskless setup.'' and every
thing should be quite clear.

(cause my english isnt the best).

later
