Install Arch via ftp from another computer

It's on the tin.

I have one pc running arch, and I have another running windows (sad, I know). But I'd like to fix this by hooking them together with a network cable and installing arch on the windows box via ftp. Preferably just duplicating the entire setup, all my data, everything, onto the windows box. Is this possible, and if so how would I go about it? Seeing as I don't really have much of a clue...

Oh - I do have a cd, I could do this the normal way, but I think doing it this way would be quite interesting and informative to be honest. So it's a learning thing.

thanks

Re: Install Arch via ftp from another computer

I have no experience in this situation, but a quick google of 'arch network install' took me to this page in the wiki, which *might* be what you're looking for ;-)
