| 06:02.11 | Gomer221 | hey |
| 06:03.35 | Kyran_ | Any good solutions for installing Windows via PXE, not using Win2k/2k3? |
| 06:04.55 | Kyran_ | I have a laptop with no optical drive, no floppy and can boot via USB but the only drive I have right now is 256MB. It also, obviously, has PXE support. |
| 06:06.58 | Gomer221 | You have another laptop? |
| 06:07.37 | Kyran_ | I have a deskop. If I can't find anything soon I'll buy a IDE converter. |
| 06:09.12 | Kyran_ | I do have a MP3 player. But it isn't bootable. So, if I can get USB Drive support while in some sort of OS, I'm thinking of doing the, copy i386 folder, usb boot into dos then install. But, yeah. that's a bit complex for me. :P |
| 06:09.22 | Gomer221 | No ideas. USB optical drives are cheap though. IDE converter method introduces its own problems |
| 06:12.02 | Gomer221 | Maybe someone else can come up with a solution. But ths channel's slow. You'll probably have to wait a few hours for a response from someone who knows more than I |
| 06:12.29 | Kyran_ | Oh...ahaha. I do have another laptop. But it's only a few years younger than me. |
| 06:12.40 | Kyran_ | Some Toshiba 233mhz POS. |
| 06:13.44 | Gomer221 | Does it have a CDROM? |
| 06:14.06 | Kyran_ | Not sure if it works, why? |
| 06:14.45 | Gomer221 | never mind, had an idea but realized it won't work |
| 06:15.31 | Kyran_ | I do have a copy of Win2k server somewhere. If I can't get an optical drive soon enough, I'll just resort to creating a partition on my desktop and using MS PXE. |
| 06:15.33 | Kyran_ | :S |

| 23:58.09 | Kyran_ | Hmm. What is needed to install windows remotely via PXE exactly? According to some docs I can only install 2000? According to others I need XP Pro. Etc. Some clarification on it would be nice since I'm stepping away from pxelinux. |
