I have a quick question regarding the free disk space of a netbooted machine. I'm new to this, but have an Xserve and am trying to see how useful netboot might be.

I just turned an image created using netrestore into a netboot image using the system image utility. It boots fine, but there is only ~300MB available on the disk. this quickly runs out as applications are opened and causes issues.

Is there a step that I missed? What considerations are there with using netboot images for everyday use (office apps, internet, etc) for temporary users who don't need to store files locally, but DO need to be able to use a range of applications which need to store temp files etc.

Thanks!
Aaron
