That&#x27;s where iLO comes in. iLO is horrible, but you can ssh to it and set all manner of stuff.<p>When we didn&#x27;t have PXE, we had a script that told iLO to boot from CD, and that the CD was located at <a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;something&#x2F;bootme.iso" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;something&#x2F;bootme.iso</a>. iLO would always have network, and would pass the .iso magically to the server as device to boot from.
