Dom, the fastest would be to snag the other PC's CDROM drive ;)
Ha, ha, yes, but I didn't want to have to do that. I don't know how much faster that would have been, especially since you still have to open the case, etc.
But you learned a lot from the other experience so that is good also.;)
So what you did was to pxe boot from a tftp server with an install image? How did you make the local installation sources available to the PC? NFS? Apache? FTP?
Yup, this is what I did. TFTP and DHCP on the same server. I installed only Apache. I think I removed FTP. I'd still want to do it over again just to be sure I know what I did right.

Perhaps there should be a wiki to keep howtos for Internet Cafes migrating to Ubuntu.

Whenever I get these types of problems I try Opera. Sometimes it works. But yes, the government should stop the IE only web services.
