iPXE, LTSP, and NBD

RE: iPXE, LTSP, and NBD
There is no NBD support in iPXE but that probably does not matter.

What you want to do is load a kernel over http, and an initird.
the initrd will need to contain the basic support tools to get network configured and then mounting NBD and pivot-root to continue boot.

You can still use the kernels autoconfiguration for the network if you want to.

Another possible solution is iSCSI which might be "more supported" by iPXE people.
