Ok, so...
Say you have a netbook w/o a cdrom or floppy drive. You want to run a bootable CD.
Is there a way to boot over the network and boot an image of a bootable cd contained on another machine (nfs or samba shared)?
Say I want to start up this machine and run a system restore, a linux installer, a windows installer... is this possible to configure, and if so, what should I be looking at?
It seems it has something to do with PXE... but I can't seem to find any good explanations really.
