[Etherboot-users] PXE and WinPE ?

[Roy W. <roy...@ya...>]

Please help. This mailing list has helped me a great
deal with PXE setup and I use PXE booting all the time
now. I can PXE boot any system to DOS or to
ThinStation, and all of this technology works
incredibly well. However, booting to DOS is great, and
with a good Network Boot Disk, I can make network
connections to any system and start installations etc,
but it would be far far better to PXE boot Bart's
WinPE disk.

All I can find are the following pages :

these are not much use as they talk about RIS servers
and using Linux servers to boot. The thing is that I
have my TFTP and DHCP server setup, and I just want to
put a WinPE image in there and boot it as ThinStation
or any other image does. Does anyone have any
experience of getting this working, as it would be
very powerful to boot any diskless or new system
straight to WinPE and have a full Windows environment
running from RAM booting across the network ?
