Actually LTSP looks like I would work great off a compact flash to get
the image loaded from a server wirelessly.  The problem with wireless
is there no PROM on any that I've seen for putting a network
bootloader on (thats essentially what PXE is).  I may be giving this a
shot when I get my EPIA in and just change the target image to be an
autoloading mythfrontend with mfd.
