I would like to try to setup my system to boot up my system from the network
and I want to know if there is a chance that it might work with me before I
try. The reason I ask such a silly question is because I have an Asus m/b
that has an option in the bios to boot off the network. I notice that there
is a link to a site from ltsp.org that sells network cards with some boot
roms or whatever. Would I not need one because of the way my m/b is set up?
Thanks. (btw, don't send me to that irc channel because a) I don't have a
chat program here at work and cheapo internet at home and b) I'm only asking
a yes/no question.)
