DOS Boot Disk with PCMCIA Network?
In the words of Penelope Pistop: HHHeeeeyyyyyllllpppp!
I've got an old laptop with a 3Com 3C589C PCMCIA card which I want to wipe the drive on and put a fresh Windows install on. The problem is that this laptop has no CD drive, so I want to copy the setup onto the drive first over the network.
I want to create a DOS-booting disk that enables my network card as well, so I can see the shared CD drive on my main machine and simply file-copy the stuff I need. I'm using a x-over RJ45 cable to hook into the other machine as I have no hub.
I've not been able to get this working as I'm not really too sure as to what I'm doing - I'm just a programmer not a network tech!
Anybody offer me a walkthrough guide or point me to sites with the right info?
