[CentOS] Re: PXE Boot Live CD

By the deafening silence to my question I guess this is a Dumb Question (TM).

I can get the kernel on the Live CD to boot via PXE but I'm not sure how to get it to configure a local NIC so you can NFS mount the CD image. All the kernel gives me is a very limited root environment.

I guess the answer is to create a regular diskless boot image and use that. But is there any way to create some sort of generic image that could be booted on a variety of hardware using different NICs?

Is it possible to boot the Live CD through PXE? I've tried using Red Hat's PXE setup tool but have been unsuccessful.
