Yeah, old hardware is fun to tinker with :)  I got this machine for free
from my roommate so I figure what the heck, let's put Gentoo on it!
That does sound like a cool idea - hadn't thought of trying NFS.  How
would one do something like that?  I imagine you still need a harddrive
in there to get the boot process going (to start up grub) and then you
could configure grub to do the rest of the NFS stuff?  This box doesn't
offer anything else like PXE, booting from USB.  It doesn't even have a
CD-ROM or a floppy.  Just a hard drive!

But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people
for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him
who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. Once you were
not a people, but now you are God's people; once you had not received
mercy, but now you have received mercy. ~1 Peter 2:9-10
