Is it possible to use PXE other than with NAT

As per the title really. I've got a little side project using a virtual lab environment where my machines historically use a host-only network. I'd *like* to be able to PXEboot new machines, automate the O/S install and so on. However although I can get PXE booting working fine with NAT I can't find any documentation as to if this is supported with Host Only adapters. I do have the extpack installed.

running 4.3.6 with the appropriate extpack.

I would not use NAT or host only. I run such things in an internal virtual network (and PXE should work fine and be supported there).

Host only is pretty limited for any sort of test network. Are you running PXE boot from the host?
