Can't you just put in a new optical drive, long enough to do an install?
One of the down-sides of such name-brand equipment is that their parts are all different from other systems.

Anyway I've solved the problem with PXE which seems to be the best way to do it. -- My Main Blog http://etbe.coker.com.au/ My Documents Blog http://doc.coker.com.au/
