PIE: Linux LiveCD for Installing Windows XP
« on: December 08, 2004, 02:30:11 AM »
Hi
I found a strange LiveCD from University of Edinburgh:
PIE: Pre Installed Environment.
This Linux based LiveCD enable user to install Windows XP on PCs connected to LAN.
Is it possible to create similar Linux PowerPC LiveCD for installing AmigaOS4 or MorphOS on AmigaOne/Pegasos connected to LAN?
Thx

They probably wouldn't care.  The Dell Server Assistant setup CD works the same way.  It boots Linux (with XWindows) and runs via a GUI an attended or unattended installation.  You can choose between various OSs (Windows 2000 Server, Windows Server 2003, Redhat Linux, etc.).  
Time to move on.  Bye Amiga.org.  :(
