Help Installing Linux on BIOS that doesnt' support cdrom/usb booting.



How can I go about installing linux on a machine that has a cdrom drive
but doesn't support booting from CDROM?
Is there a work around?
I know I could network install, but is there a way to get to the
bootloader to run network setup without a cd-rom.
I read about PXE, but not sure how hard this would be or if I need the
card to be "Wake-on-LAN" capable.
If anyone has any suggestions, please let me know.
