If we're speaking of the VS2000: Yes, it can. It's painfully slow
since DMA isn't supported yet (Ragge: HINT,HINT ;)) but it works. I'm
using a VS2k as a webserver which is being netbooted (since the PROM
won't allow me booting of the SCSI disk). Check http://132.187.13.193
for details.

Basically it's plain SCSI, so just give it a try!
