I'm playing around and even do some productive work now. One thing I'm wondering, will it be possible, to do PXE based Netboot inside the Virtual Machine? We're running Symantecs Lifestate Delivery system, and it would be great, to kepp track of the installations with it.
 
In another thread one of the Parallels guys said they would have PXE support in a future release. In the meantime, checkout: http://etherboot.org/ I used on of the floppy .iso images to get the same effect. You have to tell parallels, the floppy .iso is a CD .iso, and it boots that just fine.
 
etherboot works first but...

Today had some time to play around with etherboot. It starts, connects to the SLSD-server, gets the pcdos files and tries to start PC-DOS and then crashes. Is there a known incompatability with PC-DOS?
