I’ve been thinking about switching distros, but I don’t want to lose all the work with the GPSDrive + kismet install. So I want to keep this ubuntu install as an image at least. So the first part of the new set up is to install a PXE server to serve as repository of the distros I am going to test. PXE (Preboot Execution Environment) uses several different protocols to manage the IP selection (DHCP) and file transfer (TFTP) among others. I used TFTP32 from http://tftpd32.jounin.net/ and a short and sweet guide from http://hugi.to/blog/archive/2006/12/23/ubuntu-pxe-install-via-windows
