This was tossed around last meeting as a potential topic.

How to set up a PXE boot environment w/ DHCP and a tftp server.

We will cover how the pxelinux.cfg (aka lilo.conf or grub.conf) works and
also run through a demo on how to convert any iso image to make it pxe
boot compliant (i.e. loopback mount it, create a loopback file image and
take the kernel and modify the pxelinux.cfg file to point to the bootable
kernel).

If we do this hopefully we can bring some boxes that can boot off of the
network to show how cool and neat setup this is.  (does anybody have any
computer that they can bring which can bootup off of a network card?)
