Building an pxelinux memtest server
Building the system
Find a box
This step is real simple. Find a computer that will suffice it's use... If it's going to be just to run memtest, a thin, light system will work.
- You should know this step by now, but if not it's just fine.
Set the NIC of the server you are working on to boot from the network, plug into the build intranet, when pxelinux boot, choose the install base server option. When this is finished don't forget to disable that feature. If the motherboard doesn't support this then use a boot floppy with pxeboot installed.
