PXE

Hi
I am looking at booting some workstations off the network to either install
or run a bootable image containing repair utilities, could someone point me
to a tutorial ?

Example if I have a few ISO images stored on the server, I would like to be
able to boot off PXE on a workstation and choose which ISO to boot off, is
this possible and how to implement it ?
Thanks

To use PXE you will need to use a service that it looks for, such as RIS or
WDS.
