Hello,

Is there an easy way (ipmi, omsa or else) to set the BIOS "boot order" setting to "boot from Network" from the shell, then reboot the server and have it boot via PXE, or do I have to reboot each server individually and set it in the bios or boot via the F12 key ?
The server is a PE 1850 running Centos 4.5.

I'm looking for something like 'eeprom' command on Sun Sparc/Solaris basically :)

Thanks and cheers,
