MiniMyth <http://linpvr.org/forum/viewforum.php?f=8> uses PXE to boot 
over the network. The kernel and the root file system are downloaded 
from a TFTP server and run from memory. With MiniMyth, you can also 
mount the root file system using NFS rather than downloading it and 
running it from memory.

Now, MiniMyth supports VIA EPIA SP and Commell LV-667 mainboards along 
with the VIA EPIA M series motherboards.
