reading diskless(8) and bootparams(5) is a good way to start.
I don't know what you want to achieve, but for myself I have / on the
local disk and only certain stuff on nfs (like /home/* and /usr/src).

I am trying to get OpenBSD to boot it's root drive over NFS.
What is the OpenBSD's normal interface for passing parameters for
startup? Is it a parameter string similar to Linux? I see that OpenBSD
uses BOOTARGS. I'm not sure if that's the normal OpenBSD interface. Is
there any documentation? So far all I have found is arguments for using
physical disks and entering single user mode. Surely other parameters can
be passed.
P.S. If no documentation exists any help locating the code where
BOOTARGS is processed would be appreciated.
