the only 'remote boot' i'm aware of is with a remote access card, ie.. DRAC for a dell . remote install is totally different.

Almost any modern x86/x64 can be remote booted using PXE. Remote installation is basically just the application that runs by default after a remote boot.

well,

surely - you can wake modern x86/x64 by phone if your machine have a modem and does support wake on ring .
but at this topic "maybe" - the point is that we must have PXE capable NIC right - to support wake on LAN?
DHCP + TFTP + boot file/image - etc.
but - actually its all about apps (terminal/remote install etc) that runs on top of it.
i mean - why you wake the machine if you dont have anything to do with it?

cheersSmilie

If the NIC is built into the motherboard, odds are extremely good it supports PXE.

Also, one can use a boot floppy to PXE boot when your card/BIOS doesn't directly support it.
