[ILUG] Installing Red Hat Linux using PXE

It would appear that on Thu, 20 Jun 2002, Aj McKee did say:

Yep... we do it all the time. I'll forward you the message I got sent 
about it yesterday when I intended to reply to the earlier topic. 

Basically:
 enable PXE
 have DHCP server redirect to TFTP server
 give box the appropriate kickstart image

It works pretty well and requires little or no interaction from me.. 
which is always a good thing
