Subject: [Fedora-livecd-list] Running LiveCD from network?

I have a PXE boot environment set up for installing Fedora/RHEL.  Has
anyone looked at making the LiveCD loadable from the network?  If not,
are there any pointers that might help?

Mohammed Khan did some work a while back.  I wasn't able to get it to
work (failed at the pivot root), but I dig very deep on it.  It works
for him, so it's worth looking at.

I'm happy someone else thinks like me. I posted to the anaconda list, a hack using nsf as the storage point for the live image, but that only did an install.(July/Aug 07). If that is what you want, it works. I'm currently playing around with anaconda's loader to see if I can get that to run the livecd, seems to me like a good starting point, with a gui for dmc's persistent work. With anaconda's hardware detection, I'm hoping to make a portable persistent live-usb disk. I've been (very) slowly porting the livecd's initrd parts to C code for anaconda's loader. I've got a mix of shell and C that currently can mount the livecd, and use that in place of the stage2.img file. (boy is it hard to keep up with some of the changes going on) Next is to get the run-init part to work without freaking out anaconda. Any interested?
