Windows Server 2008 install using ILO virtual media

Hi,

Is there anyway to install Windows 2008 using virtual media? I don't have a physical DVD on our blade systems (note this is ILO2 on a bl465c G1).

Yes, there's no real difference with Windows 2008. I've done it using an ISO image and mounting that using virtual media and then initiating the install...
