PXE linux server for Disk Imaging software

Hi all,

I'm operating a cyber cafe with 50 PCs in my outlet. my daily
maintenance routine, I usually take out the hard disk and put in
another one which have CD-ROM and run ghost version 8 on the bootable
cd.

These is really a stupid way to do maintenance, so I found out my
motherboard actually have LAN as booting device, so I'm thinking to
setup a PXE/Boot server so all the client PC can connect to the server
for any disk Imaging maintenance.

I don't want to use Windows 2000 as server, i prefer Linux since i'm a
intermediate linux user. But googling on "ghost with Linux PXE" doesn't
return much result.

I understand the idea of using PXE but i'm not clear what program
should i use on server and client.

Can anybody point me out some ideas??


Thanks.
