PXE Knife

PXE Knife is a tool for booting various floppy based utilities via syslinux, allowing them to be booted off a CD, a hard drive, or over the network via PXE.

PXE Knife can be used with a number of commonly used tools such as hard drive manufacturer's utilities, memory testers, Linux recovery disks, Windows password changers, pre-configured PXE Knoppix booters (just add DVD), and a number of other utilities.

It takes advantage of syslinux's menu system, so it's easy to navigate.

This is a standalone plugin. Download pxeknife002-XXX.tar.gz from SourceForge and extract it to your TFTP folder.

Since PXE Knife has been superseded by Amahi Netboot and the original project is hard to get we have uploaded the entire project with our ERPXE plugin.
