Well assuming you don't have a terminal for the box, you could look in you dhcp 
log for an error (/val/log/messages). It will say that there is no available 
lease and give you a mac address.

With the terminal, just start a pxe boot ant you will see the mac it is using.

Subject: How to discover the baremetal resources & install a VM image on

Hi all


How do I discover the MAC address of machines  that are available just with 
only BIOS installed (no Operating System present). 


And I need to find the mac address of such machines that are up with just BIOS.

How do i do image installations on bare-metal ?

Please Guide me.

Thanks.
