Thread: PXEInstall and WRAP




PXEInstall and WRAP
user name

Just so I know how to do it when configuring new system.In
fact when I 
upgraded from 2.x to 3.0, I opened the case, remove the old
CF and started 
from scratch with new CF as I am afraid that I could make
mistake and the 
system cannot run anymore. I had to reuse the old CF a
couple of times 
because my old madwifi configuration does not work. I still
have the case 
wide open so I want to take advantage of this opportunity.

Thanks Eric.
