hi all,

curios if anyone has successfully been able to boot the "live cd" from
pxe. obviously this could be very cool for an internet cafe, etc, where
a new "install" is performed after a reboot.

i get well along with pxe, but the installer looks for a cdrom and the
kernel doesn't seem to have net drivers, so doing an nfs mount to fake a
local cdrom is not currently possible.

the kernel for a netinstall correctly finds the network card, but then
the installer looks for a mirror ...

any ideas?

cheers

charles
