Get a Mac to PXE boot to allow Citrix Provisioning Services

March 11th, 2010 1 Comment

I was testing Citrix Provisioning Server in my organisation when I ran into a stumbling block with our 150 Apple iMacs, they won’t PXE boot. I researched everywhere to find out how to get an Apple iMac to PXE boot, the results of my research where lots of people saying its impossible, hasn’t been done, and can’t be done.

Not one to give up easily I set about trying to figure out how I could get it to work and after two days of fiddling I came up with a solution. I have tested the solution with Citrix but it should work with any system for which you need PXE booting capability.

Google and Microsoft have been very busy recently. Google has signed a deal with Twitter which will allow it to include tweets in its search results. Microsoft has gone one better and signed a deal with Twitter and Facebook to include information from these sites in their search results.

These deals don’t come as a massive surprise but could be hugely important for internet marketing. If nothing else it shows how essential it will be that you have a presence on social media sites such as Twitter and Facebook.
