network installation woes - the situation briefly is this:

there are 9 machines with NO floppy+cdrom running win98 and one linux
server with cdrom.
so i try using LOADLIN with the bootnet.img file but it gives error.
next, i split the bootnet.img into vmlinuz and initrd.img files using
only vi (and eyes) and then try LOADLIN. works.
next, the set of ethernet drivers for NFS install don't work.
next, i recompile vmlinuz to include the relevant driver for vmlinuz. works.

question - is there any easier way to do this without
1. editing bootnet.img file
2. recompiling kernel for relevant network driver
for rest of redhat distributions?
