Simply because I tought that using RedHat tool to create diskless
workstation wouldn't achieve my goal wich is to secure write possibilities
on PC regardless of storage type. Taroon is modular and allow to mount a
disk after a disklessboot. So if you want to protect your data in order to
block big data extraction, you are in trouble. For example, anybody can
take his own disk, open the workstation, install his disk, start the
diskless and save the data that he can read from the network...

obviously, using 2.4.25 is not a good idea because he is not patched...so
I use the SRPM from taroon-kernel in order to take a 2.4.21 and use the
redhat patchs.
