    Question RIS, PXE, ISO

    Hi!
    Where can I get RIS server for deployment of Windows though TFTP server?
    I tried some with tftpd32 but I did get results as I want them.
    I looked for "Windows XP Embedded Remote Boot Server" on Microsoft website but I did'nt found it, just some updates for it.
    When I got installed TFTPD server from "i386\tftpd.ex_" then I could not start it, always getting error like "access denied".

    What else that is possible to use for booting of ISO on PXE?
    pxelinux can handle just *.img files for booting.
    I also could boot some linux distros but partitionmagic got problem when needed to load one more file after loading of drivers.

    Nothing, because you can't.

    But if use some bootloader that can boot iso in memory.
    I have read something about grub but I did'nt try it yet.
    Do you know some other bootloaders that can boot iso on pxe?
