31         <h2>Introduction</h2>
32
33         <p>Using grml-terminalserver you can boot grml via network. If your
34         computer is able to boot via <a
35             href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PXE">PXE</a> (Preboot Execution
36         Environment) all you have to do is start grml-terminalserver on the host
37         which should serve as booting server and boot Grml via network/PXE on
38         the client(s) then. If your computer can't handle PXE you can still try
39         to boot Grml via network, because grml-terminalserver lets you create a
40         floppydisk including a bootimage with your networkcard-driver to boot
41         via network. If that's still not an option for you check out the <a
42             href="https://ipxe.org">iPXE</a> project.</p>
43
44         <p>How to start grml-terminalserver? Just invoke grml-terminalserver as
45         user root and follow the instructions. Take a look at the manpages
46         grml-terminalserver and grml-terminalserver-config.</p>
47
48         <h2>Boot Grml without grml-terminalserver?</h2>
49
50         <p>Sure - of course you can boot Grml via PXE without having to use
51         grml-terminalserver (for example if you already have a working NFS,
52         tftp,... infrastructure). Take a look at <a
53             href="http://wiki.grml.org/doku.php?id=terminalserver#booting_grml_without_grml-terminalserver">the
54             instructions in the grml-wiki</a>.</p>
