neil_dI have a motherboard I would like to use for a thin-client it can do a PXE boot (by hitting F12), but I can set it up to auto-boot from the network :( I was wondering if I attached a HHD if I can put something on it to get it to do a network boot, like you can with the floppies ?08:03
mcfloppyneil_d,  are u shure you cant add the network to the bootqueue08:06
neil_dmcfloppy: yes, I have looked, it is a strange bios.08:07
