OpenBSD questions: (1) memory; (2) Mitsumi CD-ROMs

[pfarrar at learningco.com]

     I was thinking you could use NFS:  
     mount -t nfs LinuxBox:/cdrom /cdrom
     
     The Linux box's /etc/etports requires an entry like: 
     /cdrom    OpenBox(ro) 
     
     That's how I installed on my last Linux box.

Since I have a Linux machine, and both the Linux box and the 486 have Ethernet 
cards, I *can* do a network install.  On the other hand, considering how long it
took to get the Linux box hooked up to my ISP, I shudder to think how long it 
would
take me to figure out how to turn it into an FTP server....
