How to upload ISOs to the PXE server?
-
Installed PXE on a Debian 12 virtual machine, installed FOG and everything seems to work fine, i can access the website with the login details and everything. Is there a way to upload ISOs to the server? I want to deploy a Windows XP install image to multiple machines since having to do disc swapping and manually entering all details is proving to be very tedious.

This tutorial will give you a good general overview. https://forums.fogproject.org/topic/10944/using-fog-to-pxe-boot-into-your-favorite-installer-images
Since you are talking XP, then you are also meaning bios firmware. For bios you can use a utility called memdisk.
https://forums.fogproject.org/post/142041 step #18. The memdisk program is only supported under a bios based computer. If you have uefi there is a different process. There are some limitations with bios mode, your iso file MUST be less than 2GB, this is a limitation of a 32 bit bios.
