I have done this before, and it works if the 3/50 is old enough to have
the old proms. If you got as far as you described you are ok.

Set up your server2 to have 2 /pub partitions and make sure that you
install the 68020 /pub on the /pub that you will be giving to client3.

Do not have identical roots for client2 and client3 use the 68010 and
68020 versions for the different roots.

One thing that I have found very usefull is to install programs
like cat, ls, od, csh in the clients root /bin. These will get 
overlaid by /pub/bin when it mounts, but if you have messed up
your /etc/fstab you cant really see anything.

Good luck.
