I believe zeroconf came up somehow recently on a new box until I
fixed the
network cable, so it's likely an option during install.
ciao,

I wish to connect two laptops via Ethernet.
The Debian machine is having various configurations of Jessie
installed. Consider it a laboratory experiment. It can have
multiple installs in a day. It intentionally has *NO* internet
connectivity. It has a small partition set aside for
preseed.cfg and miscellaneous scripts.
The second machine is running WinXP Pro SP3 and serves as
source of preseed and script files.
My internet searches turn up too much outdated information
and/or fine detail. Most link assume a server with multiple
clients. Better description would be a peer to peer setup. It
may be convenient to have the Windows machine act as a terminal
for the Debian machine.
Suggested search terms or links.
Thank you.
