Probably requires more investment than anyone is willing to give to developing a BIOS. It does make you wonder what will happen as wifi becomes more and more prevalent, though. However I suppose for 90% of situations requiring PXE it's going to be enterprise fully wired environments anyway. > However, I still would assume that the PXE boot would work over wireless > using a wireless access point (ie AP configured and working separately, > PC connected to the AP via ethernet, PC should be able to perform PXE > boot through the AP).

Yes, this should be fine, providing the AP is configured to forward the appropriate traffic, as you say. -- Best regards, Andy _______________________________________________ Peterboro mailing list [email protected] https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/peterboro
