Hello,
is it possible to consolidate the remote installations of
two or more unices in one box? right now we are having jumpstart for
solaris, ignite for hpux, and upcoming kickstart for red hat linux...
my question is there any way i could find a way to pack 2 or even all
of them from one box which can serve its purpose?

Thanks,
Harshal

No reason you couldn't use a linux box as a jumpstart server...

I don't know the specifics, as the last time I played with this was on
HP9000/400 and sun4, but ultimately all those boil down to feeding a box
the right packets and the right data. The data is usually transfered
over nfs or tftp, or both. The right packets nowadays usually come down
to DHCP pointing to the appropriate next-hop server. So, find out what
your sun, hp, and i386 machines really want, and give it to them.
It's that simple.
