Hi Mika,
Just out of curiosity, how do you compare Terminal Server and PXE?
I knew the term "Terminal Server" when I knew grml, and only within the grml community. The outside world seems to be interested in PXE instead. So I like to know the reason behind why grml chose Terminal Server over PXE.
Here are the homeworks I've done:
The only "Terminal Server" I found on the web seems to related with KNOPPIX http://knoppix.manty.net/ http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/KNOPPIX_Terminal_Server
But the original author of the wiki document, Rjent, has moved his efforts to working on something else.
PXE is backed by Intel and is part of Intels(tm) Wired for Management (WfM) http://www.knoppix.net/wiki/PXE_FAQ
The Linux Magazine has written a good article about 'Network Booting' http://www.linux-mag.com/id/1179

in which Tim recommended PXE.
Thanks
PS. For those PC that has Network booting built-in capability in ROM, are they booting PXE or Terminal Server or something else?
PPS. The reason that I'm asking, its very easy to test PXE booting in KVM...
