+! changing bootscreen und booting up pxes-prebuild client over the network
+
+bootscreen:
+
+the bitmap from bootup is ugly :

+
+my screen is not really beautifull but inspired (from this web-site) :
+
+http://mitglied.lycos.de/szeissig/bilch-patch.bmp
+
+
+patching the bitmap is easy:
+#note the filesize of your startup.bmp while flashing firmware
+#the bitmap is before your (unused) mbr (remember the offset - for me starts at 834236) the filesize is 14120 bytes
+#you find the bmp-header: BM(7......
+#make your own screen.bmp (640 x 480 x 8 BPP)
+#patch the new screen with dd or a hex-editor
+#flashing - finished
+
+
+! booting the prebuild-client:
+
+http://downloads.2x.com/pxes/1.1.1/PREBUILT/
+
+#download *.nbi file for etherboot
+#set up dhcp / tftp (for me tftpd32 ... yes!, quick & dirty!)
+#boot the machine (have a look on your brand new start-up screen) - fertich
