Hi, We ported BpBatch, the tools described in the Linux Remote-boot mini-Howto, to Intel Preboot Execution Environment (PXE). That means, you can now use it with most onboard bootproms to load Linux, to manage disk images and to authenticate users at boot time. To our knowledge, PXE bootproms providers are Intel, Incom and Lanworks (eg. 3com). We hope that NILO will soon be PXE-compliant so that we get free Linux NetPC !
