Booting over alternate network filesystems
As it turns out, NFS is not the only game in town. There are several other
network filesystems that could just as easily serve a shared root filesystem
to a number of cluster nodes. As of yet there is no official support in
oneSIS for alternate network (or parallel) filesystems, but it has been
shown to work. To use one, it is necessary to edit an initramfs template
(see section 3.2.2) to add the bits necessary for
mounting root over the network filesystem of your choice. The new template
can then be used via 'mk-initramfs-oneSIS -template=template'
to create an initramfs image.
