Mississauga, ON (PRWEB) January 25, 2004 -- emBoot Inc. announces the release of Managed PC Boot Agent on Disk (MBAoD) for Virtual Machine (VM) supporting network booting from a virtual machine. With the release of MBAoD for VM, emBoot dramatically reduces the time and complexity of running a PC network by allowing users to boot-up from a virtual machine guest operating system.
No other product on the market has this type of functionality at this price point," says Jurij Zurba, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for emBoot Inc. Weve taken the guess work out of network booting of virtual machines with MBAoD for VM."
VM boot agents are fully compliant with the Intel Wired for Management - Preboot Execution Environment (PXE) specification. VM supports multi-protocol and functions as a PXE / DHCP / BOOTP, RPL or NetWare Boot ROM giving more versatility and functionality to the virtual network user.
Weve made the installation quick and easy", according to Steve Marfisi, Technical Services Manager for emBoot Inc. all the client has to do is extract the provided floppy image file and point to it under VMware, or a drag and drop in to Connectix/ Microsoft Virtual PC installation.
VM Floppy Image is the most cost effective solution for network booting from a virtual machine starting at $9.00 US. Product details, along with purchasing information, are available at emBoots website, http://www.emboot.com/vm.
