RE: Boot vhd or any virtual hard disk file through internet
iPXE supports iSCSI and so do most operating systems - but you never mentioned which OS you are supporting.

This also seems like a duplicate of existing thread about VHD And I would strongly suggest using the search function, both on the forum and internet Wink

VRAM bin

As I understand it, .vhd boot can only be from a local filesystem. I would instead suggest using iPXE to do an iSCSI boot http://ipxe.org/howto/wds_iscsi

The root path does not have to be provided via DHCP, it can be generated by an iPXE script, or static in an iPXE script.

Cheers
