Just to add my voice, yes you do have enough to NFS mount from a
server, well, as long as your ethernet card is recognised ;-)  I did
this on a machine here at work just to show the NT worshipper how much
NT sucked.  Whacked in a boot floppy, configured up the network and
then just slurped it all across.  Fastest install I ever did :-)

Well, if you are tight for disk space then nothing beats just
extracting the files straight off the NFS partition...
