Instead, you should netboot them, and run nfsroot; works with irix so I suspect it will work with linux; dhcpd will inform of the tftp location of the kernel and pass the right parameters, should be doable and faster, more reliable. Now what I wonder is if X11/Xorg supports any of these framebuffers.
