Where I work we use dhcpd/tftp and PXEboot on both Linux and Windows to do automagical deployment services. The end goal with all of this is a ReactOS deployment system from a single image that can provision ReactOS thinkclients/diskless workstations without the need of a Linux or Windows host. Pushing out a freeldr or grub+freeldr or even pxelinux+grub+freeldr image with a blob containing a ROS ramdisk should be pretty simple using isc-dhcpd/tftp on Linux but I'm more interested in the infrastructure side of things right now. Currently the dhcpd with PXE support is the only part we are really missing. We COULD do it from Linux or Windows right now, but I want to get all the infrastructure in place where we don't need any other OS.
