Like many laptops the bios has a boot on lan option and I guess I wanted to see how hard it would be to use that feature to load an installer. However i assume it's not as easy as just directing the tftp server to a floppy disc image. --=20 -=3D{|TooManyMirrors|}=3D- --=-wxJseS2yP7iiTOXJoSI3 Content-Type: application/pgp-signature; name=signature.asc Content-Description: This is a digitally signed message part -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQBAUIDs6mxEKiM8NhERAlWaAJ4jFnf8V2Dczi9jCgsLraQd2kfqPwCdHS1y Zs9mMzfN0sB+p7GkFPlFcEQ= =/fsg -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --=-wxJseS2yP7iiTOXJoSI3--
