  1. nice show guys!!  Looking forward to the EU meeting up.  Are you guys coming over?

    I has strange da Ja vu,  I've just been through the whole V2P thing at work too!!  Bart PE and Ghost32 worked well for me.  One gotcha i can was when the server is low on disk space.  It will get to 99% on ghost and then fail.  What i had to do was to disable the swap file thus giving it more space on C.  Once virtualized turn it back on.  Maybe that will help someone one day!!!!

    Nice segment!!

    Stoo

  2. I've just acquired an old super thin laptop, P3 500 128RAM which will be cool for a 'toilet surfer' running linux (just like origami is designed for!). Problem is this old machine does not have a CDROM or floppy and the damn cable a proprietary from Dell. I need to install linux on there some how and the only way I can see is using PXE boot but unsure of how to do it.

    I got a real basic network setup with just 2 machines. My modem/router is my dhcp so this laptop will acquire an address no probs.

    Does anyone know how to get PXE running on this old laptop to talk to my XP machine and say, get a DOS prompt so I can install linux and map a network drive to a CD install.

    Any bright minds out there?!?!?!

    :?
