So I managed to install a PXE server and successfully booted debian installer simultaneously on 20 machines using dhcp server. But they required an active internet connection to fetch packages over a mirror, and the bandwidth was very low, so at then end of the day, only one PC was able to set up. So is there a way to boot an entire 4gb dvd-iso from a server, so that I can install it on PC connected on a network?? You can create local mirror of repos. http://www.debian.org/mirror/ftpmirror -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
