[LUG] network cards for booting off a network

 

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Hi

How can i tell if a network card is able to boot off a network,? i know
some have sockets for boot roms, but do these roms come as standard on
cards now.

just thought as the server has arrived for the lighthouse nad they have
more clients,  some monitors, etc,  so i guess its a case of booting the
computers over the network,  do i set it to do this in the bios,  if
that is the case i assume if the bios option is there, then the boot rom
thing to do it, is there too.

Don't really understand all this fully. i have instructions on how to
install the server bit though.

Paul
