    If you haven't got either a floppy drive or a CD-ROM drive you will
    need to set up a machine as a DHCP server with a TFTP server running.
    Then PXE boot your machine that is going to be rolled out.

    You will need to download the FC3 PXE boot installation images and put
    them on the TFTP server along with pxelinux. Then configure the DHCP
    server to point at the TFTP server and pxelinux.0 (which is the
    pxelinux loader).
