Is it possible to "dual boot" into either normal windows (booting from the harddrive) or linux which is stored on the network? Ive looked into something called pxe a little, but that looks more like a one way thing. Linux only and it seems you need some sorta special bios for it. I was wondering if there is something where you could pick which OS you want to load, and if you pick the linux one, it will boot off a server on my network.
Could you not have /boot on a small local partition or USB flashdrive with a full GRUB menu allowing selection of OS, then all the other linux partitions could be mounted over NFS?
I want to do exactly the same thing with my HTPCs so I'm watching this tread with interest, keep us informed on how it goes.
Good Luck.
