wanted: isolinux + NFS support
I've got this potentially brilliant idea to create a quasi-pxebootable isolinux CD. Right now, what we do at work is boot off of a CD with the pxeboot kernels & initrd's from all the assorted Linux distros that we want to install. What I'd like to do is get all those kernels & initrds off the CD, so that I'm no longer maintaining a CD. What I'd like to envision is that somehow, the kernel images & initrd's somehow get NFS mounted when the isolinux CD boots, so that the only thing on the CD is ISOLINUX. Unfortunately, I don't think that this is possible, and I'm trying to find alternative methods, but haven't had much luck yet. If you know of something, please post a comment!
