#1815: Proposed network boot helper
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
Reporter: David Kergyl | Owner: sdz
Type: enhancement | Status: new
Priority: Low | Milestone: Unspecified by Release Team
Component: SoaS | Version: Unspecified
Severity: Trivial | Keywords: Network boot helper
Distribution: Unspecified | Status_field: Unconfirmed
-----------------------------+----------------------------------------------
One possible solution to the problem described here
([http://wiki.sugarlabs.org/go/Sugar_on_a_Stick/TODO#Using_a_CD_helper_takes_a_lot_of_prep_time_before_and_after_class
Using a CD helper takes a lot of prep time before and after class]) might
be to set the PC BIOS to "boot from network before booting from hard disk"
and to provide a network boot helper. If access rights to the boot helper
could be globally enabled or disabled according to the class period, then
it wouldn't be necessary to change the BIOS boot option before and after
class.
