My error. I set my BIOS to "boot from network" before "boot from hard
drive" instead of using the BIOS boot menu to pick the boot device to get
to the PXE installer. I should have realized that an automatic reboot at
the end of the install would take me right back into the PXE installer,
which presumably defaults to WinAthena after a timeout.
