Unfortunately, no PXE BIOS option.
This was my first laptop and it ran Win98 originally (yep, scary). It
wasn't long before I realized I could run a BSD on it.
Maybe it's time to realize I can just enjoy a previous great release:
NetBSD 5.1. I have compiler tools on it, so still useful.

I have always copied the new binaries and the netbsd-INSTALL kernel
to the new system. Then boot netbsd-INSTALL.gz, which uses a ram disk,
and tell it to do an update. I usually also get a backup of my root
partition in case the update fails badly.
