- You may also boot across the network, no need to create the cluster, just
- check for procedure in "Installing and Updating HP-UX 8.07"
- pag. 2-16 - "Step 12: Set Up a Local Boot Server..." and then follow
- Chap.3 = "Installing HP-UX"
-
- This works when there are no gateways/routers between the two machines
- (pag. 2-17)
-
- Hope this helps
