Booting/Imaging a computer without PXE capable Network Card

Not all Computers can Networkboot. So the guys from http://www.etherboot.org compiled a tool called gPXE for that reason.

Its very handy to use:

  • Just download the actual version.
  • Run the Make program and use 'dd' to copy it to a floppy.

For our Workgroup here in University it works with every old PC. You find a HowTo for creating disks and usb-sticks at http://etherboot.org/wiki/removable

If you plan on making a boot CD, on fedora you will need to install the following: syslinux mtools 

yum install syslinux mtools
