Subject: [Linux-ia64] nfsroot on Linux/ia64

Has anyone tried using nfsroot (cf. "Documentation/nfsroot.txt")
on Linux/ia64 to run "diskless"?  I expect that it will work fine
but I need to do some testing where nfsroot may prove
useful and hope to avoid investing a lot of energy if
someone else has tried it and it, for some reason,
doesn't work.

Note that I know that booting diskless has been tried
successfully... I'm interested specifically in an NFS-mounted
root disk.

Thanks,
