Create a network boot disk so systems can boot off ltsp server?


Can this be done? I have an old system i'd like to try and boot off the ltsp server, however it does not support pxe boot. Is there a floppy disk i can create so that whenever the computer is turned on it looks to the lan?

Cheers

Chris

hi,

yes, you can do that on certain NIC using etherboot

just read the great wiki carefully,
it can be using a floppy disk or even installed on your hard drive.

HTH.
