Configuring a Remote Floppy

A remote floppy is a shared folder for storing and using a configuration file on the network, instead of
loading it from the ServerStart floppy disk. When the server does not have a floppy disk drive and
installation is performed in guided mode/expert mode, use a remote floppy.
A remote floppy cannot be used when installing Windows Server 2003 x64.

E.g.: C:\export\ServerStart\Floppy

up Command Prompt and enter the following command.
C:\>copy nul C:\export\ServerStart\Floppy\"ServerStart Floppy Disk"
