How to setup linux without cdrom?



Hello everyone

I have one machine with neither cdrom driver nor OS, how should I set up
linux on it? If there's one windows os, I may copy the ISO files into and
install from H.D, but I don't have. If I set up one network installing
server, and install from network, I need to run from cdrom firstly. I
remember it's possible to setup one nfs installing server and then boot the
machine from network to set up operating system, does linux do this? I'm
using red hat. Thanks for your help!

Have a good day!

B.R.
