[plug] Some random Linux questions

[David White]

Also check the manauls for the card. ie the internet. My card has a boot 
from network option in its own bios that can only be accesed with special 
keys after the normal bios sequence. I disabled the screen that showed it 
to cut down boot time and then forgot the keys. I found the manual and 
could change many 'boot' options. it turned out to be Ctrl+Alt+b
