- There is a change made in all PROM Software to load the entire Boot
- Image File from the server to the Workstation memory, then execute
- from there; if there is 512K or more in the Workstation. If there is
- less than 512K of memory in the Workstation then get the Boot
- Image a sector at a time from the server. In the case of the IBM
- Token-Ring however, there must be 512K memory in the workstation.
-
