Abstract
A system includes an input device and a processor. The processor, in a pre-boot phase, determines whether the input device indicates that the system is to be booted using a wireless network connection; and based at least in a part on the determination, retrieves an identifier for the wireless network connection. The processor uses the identifier to boot the system.
