Hello! I asked this on another SuSE list and I was directed here. I tried to search the archives as well as google for the answers, but I really can't find any good tutorial or how to. Here is my problem: I have an old laptop without CD-drive. It really needs a new install and doing it from floppy isn't really a option. But it can boot from the network. Two uses for that computer (dual boot): 1) general web - for this I was planning SuSE (400MHz Celeron, with 128Mb) 2) Kids' CD-roms for my kid - I could not get these running with wine... so it means either win98 or win2k. The installed (and broken) OS is Win98, but I have original installation CD for both windows. I have found that PXE is something connected to a DHCP server. But the first problem is that I already have a DHCP server on my network (NAP box). I was planning on using my SuSE 9.1 pro for suplying the installations for the laptop, so how do I do this? Next problem is the windows... The only guides that I have seen involve booting linux... although not very throughout help for that either. I'd like to start the windows or SuSE 9.1 installation over the network. How do I prepare the installation CD's for this? I'm also planning to install my little old Norton Ghost 2003 for backup in which ever windows ends up working better with the CD-roms. Restoring the image means booting from floppy (which I can do when I get them installed in the first place) but it would be much nicer if I could boot that floppy from the network also (i.e. when the win98 gets messed up, just boot from the net and reinstall the image for win98.) I believe that I should be able to do this with SuSE 9.1... but how? -- HG
