Thanks for replying.
I have savepart, cute partition, manager and ntoffline password $ registry

I need a lot the PLOP booting from the PXE.

If not possible with grub4dos can you help me with pxelinux.
I have a menu in grub4dos that loads the pxelinux.

Thanks

see here http://www.plop.at/en/ploplinux.html#pxel1
you need only the pxeboot.tgz. it has a fully configured pxelinux example how to start the plop boot manager with pxe.

ask when you still need help. (success posts are welcome too)

EDIT:
for windows users http://www.plop.at/en/ploplinux.html#pxew1
use the pxeboot.zip file

I found a solution and its very easy :D

just boot the iso from grub4dos

this is my code:

title PloP boot manager
map --mem (pd)/plop.iso (0xFF)
map --hook
root (0xFF)
chainloader (0xFF)

many thanks

now in some notebooks when i start usb boot it hang even with ctrl+u

ps: this happen even in normal boot with plop running from CD not just in PXE
