is released.
   HP: http://openlab.jp/oscircular/inetboot/
   Guide-PDF: http://openlab.jp/oscircular/inetboot/InetBoot080731E.pdf

We prepared the InetBoot scripts for "gPXE" and "syslinux".
Please boot them from
the shell-mode of gPXE and syslinux.
Example:
  gPXE> dhcp net0
  gPXE> kernel http://www.inetboot.net/gpxe/fedora9
  gPXE> boot

The URLs of scripts are the following.

==========================================================================The
InetBoot boots an OS from a LiveCD ISO file on the Web. This
version includes 
   # x86_64 handling
   # SSH client on BuildRoot
   # gPXE (http://www.etherboot.org)
gPXE downloads the kernel and initrd of InetBoot and re-boots another
OS from a ISO file on the Web.  The detail is mentioned in the Guide PDF.
