That's correct, by default we are pushing the "cloud" product. Which
makes sense for us and our clients for several reasons, like being
easier to upgrade and support.

Though we are working on an "Enterprise product" & licensing for
private networks. Please email sales with the seats and details so we
can quote you.

Are you aware of
http://webconverger.org/pxeboot ?
Tbh I prefer you go for the USB stick route as PXE booting in my experience:
1) Kill networks (you need a decent network setup)
2) Introduces another single point of failure
Though my colleagues may disagree. ;)

That would need some extra tweaking. Is there a particular reason this
needs to be disabled, or are you just trying to reduce bloat? An
amicable goal btw.

Be good to know what's the issue with creating an ISO. Idea here we
want to make Webconverger hackable so people contribute and validate
it.

For further commercial support discussions, lets please move the
discussion to
sa...@webconverger.com and not the list, which is more
for community support and discussing specific issues.
Kind regards,
