can't think of any mechanism by which it might have shifted to network boot
by default, as it would require the bios to be specifically changed. My
sister hasn't, there's little chance of 3rd-party intrusion (BIOS password),
and the default for that particular BIOS puts network boot last. Good call,
though :)

 

Well motherboard batteries do fail and bios' get reset - however it does seem very unlikely that Net boot is the default.
 

Once again the friendliness of the Linux community has saved me :) - if anyone
ever needs a hand with anything in/around York, unlikely as that might seem,
feel free to drop me a line.

thanks - I have a friend i York so you never know.
