You could use syslinux, but pxelinux isn't going to get you anywhere 
without DHCP.  The Redhat boot floppies/CDROM use syslinux/isolinux. Quite 
a few other distributions use these as well.  Of course you could always 
set up your own DHCP server and only have reservations based on the MAC 
addresses of those 100 servers.

Hi,

We have some 100 Servers (includes both Intel and PPC based systems). Is 
there any way to easly install OS (different flavours of Linux) on these 
systems ? We do not have control over the DHCP Server settings so is there 

any way to do this with out touching the DHCP Server ?

We have static IPs for all the systems.

Regards,
Naveen
