Several companies have "pre-boot" features built into their systems (PXE,
etc). Some companies (ON-Technology, for example) have a small "pre-boot
OS". These types of systems offer the advantage of being able to access a
computer that may be having hardware or software problems.
Would it be beneficial to have a "pre-boot" version of VNC? Because of its
small footprint I wonder if it could be done. Of course the next question
is which protocol should it run on, but that is flexible due to the nature
of the RFB spec.
I suppose it could reside in the system board or in the network adapter.
Any major system developers lurking out there? This could be a very useful
feature.
and now, back to shoveling snow...
