The other option is to try a network boot and check request
on the
server side for MAC address. This needs far more knowhow
than the
first.
It is not necessary to check server. It will be displayed while searching.
However it will be for a short duration. So best way is
a.Goto bios. Enable pxe boot.
b.In Boot device priority set only pxe boot. disable all others.
c. disable booting from other devices.
Now the system will endlessly wait for dhcp reply showing the MAC address.
This is the technic I follow for intalling new thinclients.
