I was able to load it successfully off a CD.
The PXE boot fails. It loads the kernel, and then chokes. No idea why.

Yes, that's a 4GB "disk on module". Niiiice. No fans, no moving parts.
I don't know what I'm doing wrong with the PXE boot though.
Here's what I have configured:
DHCP options set to:
server-identifier fs.denninger.net;
option root-path "/usr/local/export/pxe";
filename "pxeboot";
NFS Exports set so that /usr/local/export/pxe is exported
Copied the contents of the local machine's /boot to
/usr/share/export/pxeboot/boot
Copied pxeboot to /tftpboot and enabled tftpd.
I do not (yet) have the MFSROOT set up, but the kernel should load, yes?
The system gets PXEBOOT, NFS mounts the pxeboot directory off
/usr/share/export, and loads the kernel.
That's it. It blows up right then and there; the keyboard is reset, but
she goes NO further.
Obviously I'm doing something wrong with the PXE configuration, but I'll
be damned if I can figure out what!
Being able to PXEBOOT these things would be nice..... that would make
them entirely diskless, which would be awesome.
