floppy image issues
Hi!
sorry for the top post.
I have had some troubles in the past trying to make equipment to
boot a floppy with MS-DOS that also used ms networking to access
the network.
Particularly the Gateway GSX 500 cannot have the onboard NIC with
PXE enabled, as it eats about 92k of highmemory, which in turn
makes impossible to start Windows XP setup due to low memory.
On that particular machine I had to disable PXE boot in order to
make the damn thing boot my floppy.
This is a BIOS problem, and apparently not solvable on it's own.
There will be issues in the future, as the PC Man...
