Umm, PXE is the network-card half of the puzzle. There's nothing special in the network services needed; my (Redhat) server runs dhcpd and tftpd to get anaconda stage 1 to a kickstart client. Your dhcpd must provide "next-server" and "filename" settings (I don't know UNDI - somebody who does please correct my assumptions if wrong). Of course, you can't use Solaris' jumpstart "infrastructure" scripts to install Redhat, but as a network server, I don't see a problem. Redhat as a Solaris jumpstart server is a different story, however... (bootparamd grrr) Cheers, Phil
